    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion by Hon. Mwaura. Let me take this opportunity to thank my colleague Hon. Mwaura for bringing this Motion, especially the fact that it touches our youth. The youth, as we know, are the backbone of any nation or family or any other organisation. If we do not nurture our youth the right way, we might produce half-baked people who would not carry the country to the Kenya Vision 2030 as we envisage, or more so to see the growth of the nation. Our youth have always been taken for granted and most of them are left to cut a niche for themselves without proper guidance. At the end of the day, because of the systems and attitudes and curricula which we have already adopted, maybe imported or developed from within, we end up having a lot of youth who we claim are learned, they have gone through bookwork up to university, but at the end of the day they are not specialised in any way. In this regard, before we start talking of how we can get our youth to become innovative and incubate them to become people who can bring in ideas and new technologies which can help this country, we need to develop a curriculum, an education system, where talents are discovered and nurtured from the word go.
