    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all, I would like to state that when NYS was introduced in Kenya, it was a good idea and still remains one. The main purpose was to target the youths who normally do not qualify to go to the university and those who are poor and are unable to proceed to university and college level, so that they are trained. Therefore, the idea or initiative of NYS still remains relevant up to date. Because of the ongoing financial impropriety that is happening in NYS, some members of the public and Members started saying that we should disband NYS. I want to state that you cannot throw the baby out with the bath water. You cannot disband NYS because there is financial impropriety. We need to fix the financial impropriety and continue with the good idea of NYS. If you disband NYS, you will punish the youths for the sins that are not of their own making. So, I want to start on that basis that the initiative of NYS still remains a good idea. In fact, we should strengthen NYS so that it can continue empowering our youths who are normally not able to proceed to the university and college level."
