The government has attributed delays in rolling out the National Youth Opportunities Towards Advancement (NYOTA) programme to budget constraints.
NYOTA is a five-year transformative agenda by the government, funded by the World Bank.
It aims to empower youth by addressing unemployment, income insecurity, and limited savings.
If implemented, the ambitious programme would have seen 70 youths in every ward across the country receive a grant of Ksh50,000 to either start or expand a business.
