The programme aims to train one million youths in Kenya to provide skills for online jobs and mitigate the hard biting economic situation.
ICT Cabinet Secretary, Joe Mucheru, on January 27, 2021, confirmed that the state-backed project aimed at training one million youths on freelance online jobs is on track.
The programme, christened Ajira Initiative, which was launched in 2017, had previously taken a hit after the ICT Ministry decried lack of funds.
This is after the national government reallocated funds meant for the programme to other state projects.
