Youths from Gesima ward in Kitutu Masaba constituency have challenged the County Government of Nyamira to allocate more funds to the youths kitty in the next financial year’s budget.
According to the youths, the county has not done enough in helping the youths, more so in the tendering process which needs to benefit them.
Speaking to this writer on Monday at Nyabiosi, a group of youths led by Edwin Nyakundi said that they want the county to help them in developing and initiating projects.
“We wish to inform the county government of Nyamira that we need more funds which will enable us to venture into some projects, the county has been saying that there are many projects for youths, but in the real sense we have never seen them,” said Nyakundi.
In addition, they urged the county leaderships to initiate many development projects which will help them.
Fred Mokaya, another youth said that it is quite useless for the county to encourage youths to venture into some projects without giving them resources.
“Our leaders have been encouraging us to start up projects, of course it is a good idea but how can we venture into business while they are not giving us resources, we need resources so that we can continue,” said Mokaya.
