What you need to know:

  • The programme is part of the national government’s initiative in supporting the youth.
  • PS Hinga said the final payment is for work done from July 20 to July 27.
  • The youth are now calling on the national government to pay the dues in full within the next seven days.
  • They further called for investigations into irregularities within the programme.

A group representing young people has raised concerns over alleged mismanagement of the Kazi Mtaani programme, accusing some government officials of disengaging and disregarding the youth.

In a press briefing on Thursday, National Youth Council (NYC) Nairobi delegates noted that the national government has not been true to its word on the payments under the programme.
