Felix Tush says
LEAVE CENSUS JOBS FOR THE JOBLESS YOUTHS.
It is so saddening when I see salaried employees busy taking up August leaves in order to compete with unemployed young people merely Form 4 leavers and others fresh from college/universities who are equally their sons and daughters in securing CENSUS JOBS.
Let them leave this enumerator, Content supervisors and ICT supervisors jobs for us the YOUTHS. When you deprive us from being responsible now, how do you want us to mould our future? do you want us the youths who are really looking for college and university fee/upkeep do?
Government comes up with such programs like Niims, census etc to empower jobless youths mostly. To give them small capital to startup life and engage in business.
I urge our able interior ministry, county commissioners and DCC to protect us the young people from this egocentric Kenyans.
