Capital FM’s Mogul Chris Kirubi Sagely Advice To The Youth

Anne Waiguru’s announcement that over 700,000 jobs were created last year caused some loud grumbling from the young and jobless .”How is it possible that over 700,000 jobs were created and we did not get any?” they asked.

Business mogul Chris Kirubi had some words of advice for those complaining:

Yesterday when Cabinet Secretary Ann Waiguru announced that 700,000 new jobs were created last year, it caused an uproar especially with the many young unemployed people.

However, I would like to say this… Governments anywhere in the world create more of opportunities than jobs. You cannot afford to sit back and wait for jobs to given to you. Identify the opportunities and get hold of them. I am impressed by those in the diaspora who identified opportunities and managed to create great livelihoods for themselves and their families. It’s all about what we are willing to do with the opportunities and resources that we have been given. If you are too ‘blinded’ by your current state and are waiting to be spoon fed, then woe unto you. Be pro-active and rightfully demand and get what is yours.

Sieze the opportunity and make it work for you
