Even during our times in 1990s - engineering was dead end
Smart ones switched to IT & Telcom.
Electrical was worse - took the brightest - frustrated them - no job.

I feel for this man - the country has failed him

The system is not working for many young people.
Peoper policies need be in place to address long tem issues.

That also help build your CV. Unfortunately most university kids dont get proffesional skills. Computer science or Engineering wont cut in kenya without skills...you may need to do internship, do online gigs, personal projects, build your cv.

Help them build CV, source for internships, guide them to new job markets and trends. Etc etc. Attending silly Manyora lectures will not cut it.
