Baringo Senator Gideon Moi wants the government to ensure prompt payments for youth engaged in Kazi Mtaani initiative and broaden the scope beyond casual labour. The Kanu boss also wants the government to tackle claims of corruption in the programme launched last year by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

In the Senate yesterday, Gideon told the Standing Committee on Roads and Transport to seek answers regarding the future of the programme that targets unemployed youth from informal settlements across the country.
