    "content": "In spite of them having happened before, I am of the view that we need to speak out against them and have a conversation on the matter with a view of finding a solution to this challenge. For a start, we could use our campaign platforms as we gear ourselves towards 2017 general elections, to urge our youth to be mindful of their actions and not expose themselves to vices such as drugs, cliché as it may sound. We also need to seize any other available opportunity to inspire our youth to aspire to uphold the highest standards of ideals. I believe that for Kenya to move forward, we not only need the human resource capital provided by these young people, but also their right frame of mind. I urge our young people to do everything in moderation and not to give in to the proverbial peer pressure. Proverbs 9:10 says that:- “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” As leaders, let us instill God’s fear in our young people so that they have wisdom not to engage in such things."
