His calls come just a day after Kisii County announced various posts under permanent and contract terms on its website.

Speaking to Hivisasa on phone, Echate condemned the notion that county jobs are meant for politicians and older people in society. 

"Youths should also fight for their space in society. Any job can be taken by anyone as long as they are over 18 and qualified," he said. 

He said that employment rate amongst the youths was still high in Kisii county. 

Hs is the youngest cabinet executive so far to hold the youths and sports docket in the country.
