President Uhuru Kenyatta on Thursday warned against the misuse of funds meant for the ‘Kazi Mtaani’ initiative. Uhuru further pledged full support for the nationwide youth initiative aimed at cushioning many youth who have lost jobs as a result of the current Covid-19 pandemic. The President is expected to announce the launch of the second phase of the initiative on July 6. The initiative has been allocated Sh10 billion and will run for six months in all the 47 counties. "Currently we have engaged 26,000 youth in the pilot programme as we seek to officially roll out the project," he said.
