Empower youths now

EDITOR - Government must come up with a feasible solution to empower youths and stop masquerading. It is now a year since Old Mutual released $10m for youth empowerment - but to my surprise less than $2m has been disbursed.

The unemployment rate among youths continues to soar – yet they are failing to access the funds that could empower them. In fact, many of them, especially those in the rural areas do not know of such a programme. I think the government through the relevant ministry should disseminate information and provide resources to all youths if they are truly serious about empowerment. – Unemployed, Mash East
