A Letter to the Jobless Kenyans

Welcome to this unforgiving country. If you are jobless, probably you don’t have money. You are poor. Stop lamenting that the government imekataa kupatiana 1 million jobs they promised. 

Government haiwezi kukupea bursary, HELB loan, ikununulie books za library and desks, and still expect it ikutafutie job after graduation. No way. The government is already overworking. 

Look, the world is changing. We migrated from analogue to digital. Nobody believed it. 

Farming is quickly replacing other types of employment in the workforce. Let's say you planted 3000 Wambugu apple seedlings. Each tree will produce an average of 250 to 500 fruits when it is fully grown, which will take 9 months.

If we multiply the lower end of production—250—by 3000 trees, we will get 750,000 fruits. If we sell these 750,000 fruits for Ksh 20 per piece, that equals Ksh 15,000,000.

Note that Apples can be harvested twice annually and most of them are imported.

There's more money to be made in farming industry than ever before. 

Stop being lazy. 

Whether you are green or barely dipped your toes in the land of farming, Veg Farms Kenya is always looking to help make your journey simple, easy, and sweet as pie.

The options are endless Check (Veg Farms Kenya)…. 

Half Baked Graduates from Kenyan Universities

1. This is a generation of youth who lack technical mastery, employability skills and even life skills.

2. A "filter and selfie" generation that spends several hours sharing videos and photos on Tiktok and Instagram instead of thinking of how to start a business.

3. Idle and clueless individuals who spend several hours liking Kilimani mum's nudes instead of finding out what's going on in farming business.

4. Educated slay queens whose only business idea is to sell women clothes and handbags at exorbitant prices 

 5. They are not prepared to work for Embasava as a driver earning Ksh2000 per day, but they are delighted to work for Toyota Kenya as a clerk earning Ksh30 000 per month.

6. ''Learned individuals" who are not prepared to make Ksh60,000 monthly doing their own farming business but are very happy to work as a teller in a bank getting paid Ksh30,000.

7. For them, working at Safaricom as a customer support agent is better than owning Mpesa agent tent by the roadside.

8. They always blame the government for the lack of jobs even after the government's effort to educate them through bursaries and HELB loans.

9. They can do anything to get a job but will not think of starting a farming business of their own to employ others.

A lost generation that can't be redeemed even if Jesus Christ decides to die again for them to be saved from ignorance. They have set imaginary standards and class that can't allow them to do ordinary jobs.

It's really sad.

Kazi Ni Kazi Is a Phrase for the Hopeless 

The phrase is a cousin to “Bora Uhai.” It’s a sign of despair. Defeatism. 

A feeling that a situation is so bad that there is nothing you can do to change it. 

Let me explain what the phase means. It simply means “just do any job so long as it puts food in the table.” 

This is a third world citizens’ way of thinking. "Take anything" mentality. 

I beg to differ with this way of thinking. The reason for working is not only to “put food on the table” or meet basic needs. You also need money to buy a good car, drink fine wine, support your side chick, for vacation and other luxuries. 

It doesn’t have to be an office job. If a farming business job can give you all that, then take it with both hands. 

We are not in this world just to “live” but to live a comfortable, happier and healthy life. That’s what we promise Kenyans.
