    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Ajira Platform Fund will be instrumental in the wider mechanism of the disbursements of the stipends to ensure support to programmes and projects that are in line with the Fund’s objectives such as securing digital enabled jobs and support oriented standards. This will also ensure sustainability of the fund’s programme, especially the counterpart funding from the private sector. We intend to build up this fund by allocating it Kshs1 billion every year to Kshs5 billion. Our youth do not have to migrate to cities to look for work as they will be able to work from home wherever they are. Notably, that is the reason we have also approved and enhanced allocation to Konza Technopolis, the future growth centre in the country. This will further enhance ICT innovations and support the service sector more robustly and become a leading centre for business outsourcing. This will contribute to economic growth and create employment with decent living wage and wealth creation. Basically, in the next few years the City will relocate to Konza and we will have a bigger city there."
