Isiolo North MP aspirant Mwenda Thuranira has unveiled his manifesto with education and women empowerment among the issues he will prioritize on if he clinches the seat.
Having offered full secondary scholarships to nearly 200 needy students through his Mwenda Thuranira Foundation, the PNU candidate said his leadership will support at least 500 learners a year in efforts to beat illiteracy and ensure 100 percent transition to secondary school.
“I will, if you elect me, ensure fair and transparent issuance of bursaries and offer full secondary school support to 500 learners every year,” he said.
The aspirant said he will offer 1000 jobs for the youth annually to curb wayward behavior like drug and substance abuse and to ensure they are able to fend for themselves and their families.
“I will also focus on raising the enrolment at technical colleges so that our youth get hands-on skills for employability and to even start their own ventures and create jobs for others,” Mr Thuranira noted.
