Kenya’s population is currently at 45 million with about one million Kenyans being born every year. Out of the 45 million, a third are young people between the ages of 15- 24 years. Moreover, it is also estimated that 78% of the Kenyan population is below the age of 35.
The huge youth population usually represents an opportunity to introduce progress. They say a youthful nation is a rich nation. One would expect Kenya to be a rich nation since it is a youthful nation but that is not the case.
