“Every year I’m investing in the youth. My mission is to ensure our youths get the right skills, and I’m targeting the Konza Technocity which I know will absorb people with skills. Even people in Diaspora will invest in the Technocity. We have to be prepared.” said Governor Ndeti.
Governor Ndeti who was accompanied by her Deputy Francis Mwangangi, government officials and her Party candidate in the forthcoming Mumbuni North Ward seat by-election Antony Kisoi urged the youth to elect Kisoi, a fellow youth, who would easily channel their needs to her office.
She also asked employers to allow workers from Mumbuni North time to participate in the election on Thursday.
