Kisii based economist, Tony Nyongesa has encouraged youth to adopt a saving culture to enable them grow their finances.

“Learn to always save the little you have. You don’t have to wait until you get a lot of money," said Nyongesa.

"Learn from the little you have to save for if you can’t save the little you have, even the much you ay get will be hard to save,” added Nyongesa.

He touched on bodaboda operators saying they have a higher chance and opportunity of saving since their money come in on a daily basis.

“Saving allows you to save for a rainy day, and at the same time enable you to borrow loans which are useful if you got a goal you need to achieve through financial aid," said Nyongesa.

"It is never too early to save. Think of  starting to saving when you are 18 years, when you will be 25 how much will it have accumulated to, be smart and plan for the future,” added Nyongesa.
