@Maskani254 @kawive @nisisikenya Governance is a continuous process, and young people belong at every stage. From public participation and community dialogues to digital advocacy, social audits, and civic education, youth can drive transparency, inclusion, and lasting change.

"Civic education should not be about speaking for people, it should be about empowering people to speak for themselves."

A powerful reflection from the #MaskaniKwale conversation on Youth and Political Participation.

When citizens understand their rights, responsibilities, and the governance processes that shape their lives, they move beyond assumptions and become active participants in building accountable leadership.

A powerful reflection from the #MaskaniKwale conversation:

Young people are not absent from politics because they lack interest, they are often locked out by systemic barriers.

Participants identified the high cost of politics, limited access to campaign resources, lack of economic empowerment, the expectation of having a political godfather or endorsement from a major party, and the perception that young candidates are not ready to lead, even when they are qualified.

If we want meaningful youth representation, we must dismantle these barriers and create a political environment where leadership is determined by ideas, integrity, competence, and service,not money, patronage, or age.

Today marks the last day of the 3-day #MaskaniKwale training, culminating in a Maskani Conversation on Youth and Political Participation.

The youth of Kwale are coming together to reflect on their role beyond elections, discuss the governance and development issues shaping their future, and explore practical ways to strengthen accountability, public participation, and inclusive leadership.

The message is clear, democracy thrives when young people are informed, engaged, and empowered to shape the decisions that affect their communities.

[Maskani Ya Taifa 🇰🇪 @Maskani254]

The ongoing discussions at #MaskaniKwale are challenging participants to reflect on a fundamental question: What does it truly mean to be Kenyan?

By exploring Kenya's history, national identity, and Kwale's lived experiences, participants are examining citizenship as both a right and a responsibility,one that calls for active participation, accountability, and inclusion.

Trauma makes you put up with a lot of shit you don't deserve because you don't wanna lose people. Healing helps you see your worth and create boundaries so you don't lose yourself. You finally understand that some people shouldn't be around you—no matter how much you love them.

Drug abuse has been a major factor in regard to insecurity. The count government needs to impose strict regulations on the mugukaa distribution in the county which has brought devastating effects like break-up of families etc
