Kenya: Youth remain invisible in national politics.

To the Kenyan youth, from which I have recently graduated, it is time to rethink the strategies for youthful leadership. Many will find themselves passing their youth by before having a chance to play active role in our politics, now that youth is defined at the upper limit of 35 years old.

Having graduated from that lot recently, I still urge the youth of Kenya to take a serious role and position themselves for 2012 and beyond, to become key players in the management of our country and not mere supporters. With the youth constituting over 1/2 of registered voters, it should not be the case that they cannot bargain their way into political power and leadership, this should be given and granted by virtue of their ability to vote in their own.

    There is some hope for that. Look at the Inter Party Youth Forum (IPYF) in Kenya. something could come out of that. Search it on google.
