Kakamega County Governor Fernandes Barasa has announced plans to create 3,000 jobs for unemployed youth in the next financial year.
The governor said that 50 youth will be selected from each of the 60 wards in the region. The move is part of the governor’s manifesto, which aims to empower residents and promote social development.
The jobs will be in the areas of road maintenance, drainage, bush clearing, and office support services.
The governor has said that those from less fortunate families will be given priority.
The announcement was made at the funeral service of the late Maendeleo Democratic Party leader Amisi Muganda, who was the brother of Principal Secretary for Higher Education and Research Beatrice Inyangala.
The governor said that the jobs are part of his commitment to creating a more prosperous future for the people of Kakamega. He urged all eligible youth to apply for the positions when they are advertised.
