Kenya needs to change its economic model. This is according to Deputy President William Ruto, who on Thursday said that close to 17 million Kenyans are jobless and must be facilitated to contribute to the growth of the economy.

Speaking at his Karen home, Ruto said that millions of unemployed youth must be absorbed into the country’s transformational agenda.
