Kiambu County Governor, William Kabogo, has donated a high pressure pump car wash machine to a group of youths in Gitaru and urged them to venture into business.
According to Kabogo, youths should venture into business and earn a living to ensure better future for their families and also to tame drugs and substance abuse.
The Muthure village based group could not hide their joy; they said they have been rescued from unemployment.
Samuel Ng’ang’a a group member told the press that they have been hustling to make their ends meet and the donation by the county governor will help them boost their lives.
Ng’ang’a said that he will ensure the business has grown to enable purchase of new machines in the area and urged youth to venture into small businesses just to make legal money and relinquish crime.
However Kabogo expressed his concerns with the high number of drug users and illicit alcohol in the area and urged youths to work with the local chiefs to tame insecurity and misuse of drugs.
“Kiambu youths, try and work with local administrators and help the county from illicit and homemade alcohol to avoid unnecessary deaths,” said Kabogo.
He urged parents to take their children to school saying that education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
