Kakamega County Government is set to create 3000 jobs for unemployed youth in the next financial year.

The area Governor Fernandes Barasa said on Saturday at the funeral service of the late Maendeleo Democratic Party leader Amisi Muganda some 50 youth will be selected from each ward of the 60 wards in the region.

He said the move is to empower residents in line with the wealth creation and social development pillars of his manifesto.

The governor stated that all successful applicants will be allowed to serve the residents and county government regardless of their academic qualifications.

The youth to be hired for one year will be tasked with the maintenance of roads, drainage systems, and bush clearing as well as office support services,

He said those from less fortunate families will be given priority out of the opportunities to enable them to empower themselves and their families.

The late Amisi Muganda was the brother to the principal secretary for higher education and research Beatrice Inyangala..
