Raila Youth Service (RYS)

By Moses Kuria

I have sat down and thought very deeply on how Raila’s energy on demonstrations can be turned into a positive thing for this country especially youth employment. And that’s why I propose the establishment of Raila Youth Service (RYS) . RYS will be in charge of all Raila demos across all the 47 counties .This body will ensure that all Raila demos are successful nationwide such that anytime he asks for all Kenyans to demonstrate there will be presence in all regions even in areas which he doesn’t have political love . For this to be successful I propose that any young person who is in RYS to be paid Kshs 10,000 for every demo that he or she participates in. So for example if one participates every Monday on IEBC demos then he or she is assured of Kshs 40,000 every month. This means that a member of RYS can make Kshs 40,000 a month for four days only and use the rest of the 26 days or so to invest that money in business or something else. For the next 60 weeks before elections a young person can make Kshs 600,000 for the next 15 months. This will go a long way in supporting youth Employment in this country and providing the much needed opportunities for young people. As MPs we should look into this proposal and see what we can allocate Baba during this Year’s budget so that he can run RYS with much ease and contribute to youth Empowerment ! RYS will be defending the constitution as well as providing its members with employment and a livelihood .
