Earlier today, we joined H.E. President William Samoei Ruto as he officially launched the National Youth Opportunities Towards Advancement (NYOTA) Project, at Mumias Sports Complex, Kakamega County.

The NYOTA Project is anchored on five key Components: Business Support (110,000 youth), Apprenticeships (90,000 youth), Savings Mobilisation under the NSSF Haba Haba Scheme (190,000 youth), Digital Literacy and Employment Systems Training (600,000 youth), and Recognition of Prior Learning (20,000 youth), totalling 820,000 beneficiaries.

Today, 12,155 beneficiaries of the Business Support Component from Cluster 1 (Western Counties Cluster) successfully received their First batch of the grant after H.E. the president launched the project. This marks the start of the nationwide rollout, where 70 youth in each of the 1,450 wards will receive their share of the business grant to spur local enterprise.

As directed by H.E the President during the launch today, the remaining clusters will within the next two weeks utmost undergo entrepreneurship and business skills training and receive their respective disbursements.

The NYOTA Project is a key pillar of the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), empowering young Kenyans to drive inclusive growth and shape the nation’s economic future.

What defines a hero? It's not just about providing light; it's about being a light.

We celebrate the unsung heroes across Kenya who are illuminating their communities with something even more powerful: hope, knowledge, and prevention. They are the frontline champions building a sober, safer, and stronger Kenya from the ground up. Their dedication is the energy that truly drives us forward.

World Mental Health Day – Kabarnet Park
Yesterday I had the honor of attending the World Mental Health Day commemoration at Kabarnet Park, where we engaged the community on the importance of mental health awareness and prevention programs.

I took the opportunity to address the community on the need to continue promoting mental wellness, tackling alcohol and drug abuse, and supporting our young people through early prevention and counseling initiatives.

Special congratulations to all Recovery Coaches working tirelessly at the grassroots level for their dedication in community sensitization, prevention work, and treatment referrals — your commitment is transforming lives and restoring hope.

I also wish to appreciate NACADA and other partners and stakeholders for their continued collaboration in strengthening mental health and recovery programs across our communities. Together, we can build a healthier, more resilient society.

Speech: Encouraging Youth to Apply for the Nyota Grants

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Fellow young people,

Good morning/afternoon.

Today, I stand before you filled with hope and great pride for our generation. We are living in a time when opportunities are no longer a dream but a reality within our reach — if only we dare to take the first step.

The Nyota Grant, initiated under the visionary leadership of the Ministry of Youth, led by PS Fikirini Jacobs, and championed by the Kenya Kwanza Government, is one such golden opportunity. It is designed to empower us, the young people of Kenya, to unlock our potential and transform our communities through innovation, enterprise, and action.

This is our time to rise. Our time to move from talk to transformation. Through the Nyota Grant, our youth can venture into agribusiness, technology, creative industries, climate-smart enterprises, and many other ventures that build both livelihoods and legacies.

As a Youth Ambassador and Recovery Coach, I urge our young people to stay focused, to believe in themselves, and to break free from all forms of retrogressive culture — including alcohol and drug abuse, early marriages, and hopelessness. Let us choose discipline, responsibility, and purpose.

The future is now — not tomorrow, not someday — now. I call upon every young person in Baringo, Tiaty, and across Kenya:
Come up with business ideas, draft your business plans, form youth groups, and apply for the Nyota Grant. This is your moment to invest in your dreams and become agents of change in your community.

Let us show the nation that the youth are not a problem to be solved — we are the solution, the builders, and the torchbearers of a new Kenya.

Together, let’s embrace this opportunity, transform our lives, and light the path for others to follow.

Thank you, and may God bless our youth, our communities, and our nation Kenya.

Yesterday’s friendly football match between Kamurio FC and Ribko FC was more than just a game—it was a powerful gathering of youth, energy, and shared purpose.

As we cheered on the teams and celebrated talent, we also took a moment to reflect on deeper issues affecting our generation. One of the key messages shared was on the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse—a silent crisis robbing our youth of their dreams, health, and future. We reminded ourselves that substance abuse does not only harm the individual but breaks families, breeds violence, and slows down the development of our community.

But we didn’t stop there. We also explored alternative pathways and opportunities that can empower our young people:

Sports and Talent Development – like what we witnessed on the pitch yesterday.

Skill-based training in agriculture, ICT, arts, and mechanics.

Joining youth groups and savings initiatives to access economic empowerment programs.

Volunteering in community service and peacebuilding projects.

Seeking mentorship and psychosocial support for personal growth and healing.

These are the doors we must open. We believe in a Tiaty where youth rise above harmful practices and embrace purpose-driven lives. Let's continue coming together to create safe, inspiring spaces where we can nurture potential and build a united future.

To Kamurio FC and Ribko FC, thank you for leading by example. Keep shining. Baringo County Government Nacada Kenya Youth Senate - Kenya Fikirini Jacobs Young Boy & Girl Foundation of Kenya UN SDG Action Campaign

NYOTA Program under the state department for youth affairs and creative economy stands to uplift a total of 820,000 youth through business grant and skill development. This will guarantee an enhanced employability and job creation among the beneficiaries.

Yesterday afternoon at the Weston Hotel, Nairobi, I had an opportunity to accompany our Cabinet Secretary H.E. Salim Mvurya for the launch of NYOTA identity. Earlier, more than 260 youth had competitively designed and submitted their creative work for vetting.

In the presence of 47 youth representatives drawn from all counties, we awarded the top three finalists in the logo design. I congratulate Comrade Job Ogweno for emerging the winner.

Currently through the financial inclusion platform of USSD code *254 # application for OJE- On Job Experience through skill development is ongoing.

UPDATE: BARINGO to Host 'Jukwaa la Usalama' Town Hall Meeting on Saturday July 26

The Ministry of Interior and National Administration has announced that Baringo County will host a key citizen engagement forum, Jukwaa la Usalama, on Saturday, July 26, 2025, as part of a four-county tour in the North Rift Region, aimed at strengthening public dialogue on national security and development.

According to an official communication from the Office of the Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen, the town hall meetings will be held in Uasin Gishu, Nandi, Baringo, and Elgeyo Marakwet Counties from July 23 - July 28, 2025. The Baringo engagement is scheduled for the fourth day of the tour.

The forum will be presided over by Interior Cabinet Secretary Hon. Kipchumba Murkomen, EGH, who will engage local leaders, security officials, and citizens on matters affecting peace, governance, and economic development. The discussions will also highlight the government's Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) and the Ministry’s efforts to improve internal security and service delivery in the region.

"The Ministry has developed a program aimed at engaging citizens and institutions—both state and non-state actors—through town hall meetings across all 47 counties," reads the letter signed by Ms. Tungo Aaron, Chief of Staff.

Baringo leaders, including the Governor, Members of Parliament, and Members of the County Assembly (MCAs), have been invited to attend the session and contribute to the ongoing efforts to resolve longstanding insecurity challenges in the county, especially in the Tiaty, Baringo North, and Baringo South sub-counties.

Further details on the specific venue and time of the Baringo meeting are expected to be released by the Ministry in due course. The Ministry has encouraged citizens to attend and voice their views on critical issues affecting the county.
