Every member here will tell you that when they do their strategic plan for their NGCDF, one of the main problems that arise in every constituency in the whole Republic is unemployment. The idea of coming up with the YEDF was to assist bridge that gap by reducing the percentage of unemployed young people. Our young people struggle to do their careers so that they can be responsible Kenyans who can raise their families. It is very unfortunate that the same young people who have been given an opportunity to protect their money are the same ones who misuse it."}
