Speaking during the launch of small and micro enterprises seminar at the Ruiru social hall, Mutuga said he is pleased by the contribution of the youth towards the growth of the county.

“I am pleased with a youth volunteering to facilitate the development of this county. I will support them in all their endeavours in the noble task of business as I am sure the youth are going to benefit,” he said.

He added: “We may be a small group but enough to make a big change. I pose a challenge to all the leaders who are in this area to come up with a strategy to help the youth as charity begins at home,” Mutuga added.

The MCA also confirmed the government’s involvement in the youth affairs saying that a  soccer tournament launched last week by one of the youth in the county was fully backed up by the county government.
