Senate speaker Kenneth Lusaka has challenged Kenya Association of Young Parliamentarians urging the members to pass bills that benefit all Kenyans especially young people.

According to him the bills will serve as footprints of the lawmakers involved thus leaving a lasting legacy.

Addressing young parliamentarians at Sarova white sands hotel in Mombasa on Friday Lusaka said young leaders play a crucial role as far as the future of the country is concerned.

“I want you to concentrate in good leadership. It is your responsibility to ensure that you conduct yourself in integrity,” speaker Lusaka said

Lusaka argues that the future of this country solely depends on focused and sober minded young leaders.

The senate speaker insisted “patriotism is very vital as young leaders. I have risen from a very low position to what iam today”

He urged the parliamentarians to engage in good leadership upholding their integrity assuring them of a total support from the Senate.

Meanwhile, Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja, who chairs the Kenya Young Parliamentarian Association (KYPA) urged young lawmakers to uphold integrity as they execute their mandate.

He says young people undergo a myriad of challenges that concerted efforts and more so a focused leadership.

Sakaja further noted “there is a need for the youths in this to be informed on how to access government tenders,”

He says unemployment among the youth is a real issue in this country affecting young people.

The KYPA Chair says the KYPA eleventh parliament managed to pass 16 bills which according to him show how devoted and committed the legislators are.

“We are here to deliberate on how to address some of the challenges that affect young people. Most of the youth are disillusioned and as young leaders we have to look into that,”
