President Uhuru Kenyatta wants the youth to get more involved in political decisions, starting with the registration as voters in the ongoing voter listing exercise.
He further wants the youth to be vigilant and ensure there is peace as the country heads to the polls in the next few months.
This is as even leaders from the political divide have been crisscrossing the country to sensitise Kenyans on the importance of registering as voters.
The voter registration exercise, which kicked off in January closes on February 14, with the IEBC saying they have not hit their targets.
“And I would like to challenge our young people to actively participate in the electoral process, and to choose leaders who are capable of transforming our country, and bringing about positive change in our country,” said Kenyatta.
Deputy President William Ruto, who was also in coast for the same campaign got the chance to urge Njukini residents to register as voters.
Ruto got the chance to give out 800 title deeds to locals, further rubbishing claims that the government has been giving out illegal title deeds.
The leaders have urged all those who have not picked their ID cards to ensure they do so and register before the period elapses.
