The private sector recognises the opportunity to engage with young people in Kenya as they present new markets, new consumers and new producers. Significantly, this is where initiative, creativity and energy are going to come from! ~ Dr Stephen Jackson #IYD2022 #IYD2022Kenya

@ShujaazInc And finally, my personal favourite from the @ShujaazInc Youth Pulse @UnKenya supported. It shows an immediate, highly positive effect of the recent #protests : a massive increase in young people’s intentions to vote the next time the opportunity comes around

I am deeply saddened by the reports of deaths and injuries - including of journalists and medical personnel - connected to protests and street demonstrations in Kenya. I urge the Kenyan authorities to exercise restraint, and call for all demonstrations to take place peacefully.
