    "content": "Most undergraduates or students go through internship in organisations to gain job experience in their area of interest before they graduate. This in my view should be considered by employers. If we want to empower our youth, we need to consider how easy to make employment accessible. These bureaucratic measures only help to keep our youth, especially from low income settings, away from accessing gainful employment. It is of utmost importance to note that majority of the job seeking young people come from rural areas and raising bus fare to come to Nairobi or go to other towns to look for employment is a struggle. Parents are more often than not forced to sell their only cow, goat or sometimes their land to give money to their children in order to cater for all the charges required to produce these documents. Those without parents rely on well wishers. The ones with disabilities are even more affected, especially when they are moving from one institution to another in search of these documents. This is very punitive."
