    "content": "hope that the issue will be looked into during the recess, so that Nairobi City County Executive is properly constituted. As I finish, I thank Senators for the support I have had on the issues raised about young people in this country. The level of unemployment is very high. Every turn they take to look for a job, they are oppressed, harassed and fought. I have spoken about bodaboda riders, Uber drivers and hawkers who are accused of selling counterfeit goods. All of them have some hope in this House. As we fight corruption, let us not fight the youth. I hope that those issues will be addressed and brought to this House. I agree with the Senate Majority Leader that we should invite stakeholders such as the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure Development, the Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) and the National Treasury and Planning because we must get to the bottom of these issues. I wish Members a lovely recess which is about one month. When we go to the counties, let us not just go and talk to our people but take time and listen to them. We have the Oversight Fund which will enable us to do our work. When we listen to the people, you will find some of the most beautiful and sterling ideas on how to oversight projects in the counties which belong to the people. I intend to spend time in the 17 constituencies and 85 wards of Nairobi City County just listening to my people and knowing what we can do to serve them better for them to feel the impact of this House. I thank you and wish everyone a blessed recess."
