The construction of a Resource Center at Kaptembwo informal settlement area in Nakuru city has excited both the parents and the youth who look forward to the facility changing the negative attitudes of the young people.
While inspecting the construction of a perimeter wall at the Resource Centre, which is poised to significantly enhance the security of the facility once completed, the Chief Officer for Youth, Sports and Talent Pastor Alex Maina said the center will be equipped with computers and indoor games.
He observed that Resource centers are necessary, especially in informal settlement areas where many people tend to stay in small houses, hence the need for a space for learning and meeting other like-minded people.
He appealed to the youth to desist from criminal activities, which has given them a negative image in the county due to various gangster groups such as the infamous conform group that has terrorized families in numerous residential areas.
Pastor Maina commended the social workers on site for their discipline and dedication, which he noted was crucial for the timely completion of the perimeter wall.
