Is Mutua’s proposal that youth should create, not look for jobs good idea?

Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua addresses journalists in Kisumu where he announced the the ban of Rafiki film over explicity of it's content.

I support the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) CEO sentiment that the youth should stop the overdependence on employment and create jobs instead. It is true that available slots, be it in government or the private sector, cannot be enough for the millions of jobless youth that we have.

So, telling the youth to wait for employment in such circumstances is misleading. Starting a business like selling mitumba clothes is not as hard as it may look, or embarrassing. With as little as Sh1,000, you can go to Kibuye, Kongoea, Karatina or even Gikomba market and get about 35 pieces of shirts, babies’ clothes, ladies’ blouses and the like, which one can sell between Sh50 and Sh200 per piece.
