Meanwhile Mombasa county youth coordinator Hassan urged youth to form youth groups so that they can access county government tenders.

He called on the political leaders to come up with programs that will empower local communities.

“I appeal to the youth to form groups. It is only through these groups that they will be able to get tenders from both the county government and the national government,” he noted.

Manyatta Youth Entertainment executive director Nicholas Songora says the organization is open to strategic partnership and collaborations with envisioned leaders.

He insists that MAYE opens doors to focused leaders with the ability to distinguish between politics and development.

“We are open to strategic partnership as MAYE, I think the most important thing is to have leaders who can separate politics from development,” he said.

He thanked the office of the senator for the initiative saying it will not only empower local communities but also uplift their living standards.

Locals from Mwangala, Dongo Kundu, Kaya Mtongwe, Mbuta, Tembo and Siji villages are expected to benefit from the project.
