Public Service, Youths and Gender affairs Cabinet Secretary Cecil Kariuki has warned politicians against meddling in the National Youth Service (NYS) affairs.
She said the service is not a political entity.
Speaking in Bondeni, Nakuru County during the launch of the NYS youth empowerment program, the CS insisted that NYS is there to stay despite all the huddles being incurred. "All of us know of how the service has been previously run but under my tenure, positive changes will be achieved," she said.
"Even Rome was not built in one day and that is why we are asking for time as we transform NYS. We don't want to be interfered with by politicians because we know what we are doing as a Ministry," she added.
Former devolution Cabinet secretary Anne Waiguru was forced to step down after more than 900 million disappeared from NYS.
