“I am very proud of this church. Yakwamba mmeamua, na mnajua changamoto ambayo tuko nayo kubwa ni vijana wetu wengi wamemaliza shule lakini hawana ajira, na ajira lazima ipangiwe… Na nashukuru askofu kwamba mmechukua hilo na mkaamua kwamba kama kanisa mtawasaidia training, mmewapeleka hadi wamejifundisha lugha zingine ndo waweze kushiriki katika mpango wa serikali ile inaitwa export of labour. Na kwa sababu mnanisaidia katika kupanga ajira ya hawa vijana, Wednesday, kwa Kiswahili tunasema Jumatano, Alfred Mutua na timu yake watakuja hapa.”
“I am very proud of this church. You have recognized that one of the biggest challenges we face is that many of our young people have completed school but remain unemployed. Employment must be planned for.
I appreciate the bishop for taking up this challenge and deciding that, as a church, you will help with training, ensuring they learn new languages to participate in the government’s labour export program. And because you are helping me in organizing employment for these young people, on Wednesday, Alfred Mutua and his team will come here.”
