“We often use young people during demonstrations, but when leadership positions become available, we turn to older candidates. It is time to give the youth an opportunity to lead by electing them to Parliament. That is why I am here in Ol Kalou to support Timothy Kariuki of the PM Party,” Saboti MP Caleb Amisi
He said young people are often used during demonstrations but overlooked when leadership positions become available, and called for greater youth representation in Parliament. He added that this was the reason he was in Ol Kalou to support Timothy Kariuki of the PM Party.Amisi also criticized the tendency of political leaders to mobilize young people during demonstrations while sidelining them when leadership opportunities arise.Roots Party leader George Wajakoya and Saboti MP Caleb Amisi have joined the growing opposition to the government’s plan to establish an Ebola quarantine centre at the Nanyuki Airbase in Laikipia County.
The two leaders strongly criticized the move, describing it as ill-advised and potentially dangerous to the lives of Kenyans. They called on the government to immediately rescind the decision, arguing that the facility poses a significant public health risk.
“This is a move that was ill-advised, and we do not know who advises this government. It is a risk to the people of Kenya and the nation as a whole,” said Wajakoya.
Wajakoya said the move was ill-advised and questioned the advice being given to the government, arguing that it posed a risk to the people of Kenya and the nation as a whole.
He questioned why other countries had not agreed to host the facility, asking why Kenya should be expected to shoulder the responsibility alone.
“Why is it only Kenya? We should not accept this to happen,” he added.
He said Kenya should not be the only country expected to host the facility and urged the government not to proceed with the plan.
