Most of the participants in the political party nominations that have been going on for most of this month are the youth. The youth account for seven out of every 10 jobless Kenyans, according to the Institute of Economic Affairs.
Any aspirant in the nominations, be it MCA, member of Parliament, woman representative, senator, or governor, who had no implementable progressive ideas and ideologies for the youth, both at the county and national levels, faced a rough ride. Politicians who intend to be elected in the August poll should clearly understand the needs and concerns of the youth.
