Kisumu Governor Professor Anyang Nyong’o has expressed concern over the increasing rate of teenage pregnancies in the region.
Nyong’o said the phenomenon is a time bomb that will likely explode if not arrested on time.
The governor observed that teenage pregnancies are a problem brought about by the circumstance under which they stay.
Nyong’o spoke in Kisumu when he presided over the launch of the KCB Foundation scholarship programme.
He said that he was looking forward to being part of the noble cause and encouraging young minds to strive for excellence.
The Governor congratulated the beneficiaries for standing out among the best.
With 1,000 deserving students countrywide benefitting from the scheme, the bank’s initiative aims to support bright students from poor families in furthering their education.
