"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker the issue of respect is also something very important. We have young children, brothers and sisters who work in Parliament whom we have to respect. We have to show the distinction between legislators and people who work there. I am happy that the Conference was bold enough to discuss the issue of sexual harassment because we live in a world that has many different kinds of people; some who do not respect themselves. Am happy that as legislators, we distinguish that it is imperative and important for us to respect the people who work for us. I am also quite happy that youth unemployment was discussed in this Conference. Uganda was used as an example to show how they are creating opportunities for the youth. This is something that Kenya must follow to ensure that there are opportunities for the youth. People keep on saying that the youth are future leaders. There is no future if we destroy the environment and continue inculcating the culture of corruption in this country. It is important that current leaders come up with proper policies that define the current position of the youth and look at it every five years. It is bad that in this country, the youth no longer care about the five years; it is about today because they do not have a clear future. This is something which happens in the Government. Some of the people who are recycled on a daily basis raped this country and took many resources. However, they are recycled and given big jobs. It is time for this country to follow the example of countries that have put the youth up there."
