YOUTH EMPOWERMENT

Nowadays, young people are complaining that there are no job opportunities.
Young people can venture into income generating businesses which will help them in their lives.

Some of the youths don't want to engage in manual labor and they only want white collar jobs. It's time they learn that, there's no such things.
Everyone has to work hard in order to sustain themselves.

One must have the qualifications needed in order to get those white collar jobs.
Manual labor include ;

**Establishing their own businesses.
**Starting even if it's small business for example;

•Selling sweets in the streets.
•Taking up other shifts maybe working late at night.

Young people should learn to use their own efforts instead of using others' energy.
Young people should also join trade unions.

They should also engage in self help groups. This will help them in organising their lives and it will empower them.
They can use the money to expand their businesses.

Young adults should not depend on white collar jobs but also be interested in other manual jobs to support themselves.
No person should choose work because any work is important to the person doing it.

And again you shouldn't say that 'I cannot do this job.
Or some say, I need a better job.
Instead, appreciate each job and the income no matter how little it might be.

The government should engage themselves fully in youth activities and help them in every way possible.
