The projects are not permanent since they are during particular times. The project like “kazi mtaani” initiative is among the proposals set up by government to help the unemployment. The unemployment puzzle is very tough to solve. In the streets today, we many youths have the qualification skills and all the required documents, but the work spaces are minimal to cater for all the large number of the youth. In one job interview, a large number of youths will turn up to secure an opportunity.
The youth should not depend on the employment from the government since it’s not a guarantee and it always takes long time. Self-employment is the only way in which the youth can use to solve the puzzle the youth should attend seminars and workshops that will educate and guide them accordingly on how to be self-employed. Being self-employed is when you start your own business and you run them.
