President William Ruto, while presiding over Madaraka Day Celebrations in Homa Bay County last week, announced the return of the 'Kazi Mtaani programme but with a new name, 'Climate Workx'.
The Head of State ordered the immediate rollout of the programme in all counties, giving young Kenyans renewed hope of eking out a living through engaging in the many social works enlisted in the programme.
Consequently, the announcement has sparked a wave of jubilation among the youth, who say it has come at the right time when it is much needed to salvage a good number of them from oppressive poverty.
Thirty-eight-year-old Caroline Anyango is jubilant about the Climate Workx Programme, saying she is very aware of the impact of the past Kazi Mtaani programme on her life. "Having participated in the Kazi Mtaani programme during President Uhuru Kenyatta's regime, I am confident that the Climate Workx Programme would blow a fresh ounce of life to the youth who are currently jobless and languishing in abject poverty," said Anyango.
