1. Mungiki
2. Remnants of SLDF aka 40 brothers bla bla
3. Rebranding of MRC to PDM
4. Al Shabaab

2 & 3 are said to be training. 1 & 4 are operating and slowly gaining notoriety.

I'm deeply concerned. It is important to note that these groups, with divergent interests, consist of mainly unemployed healthy youth. Kenya may be slowly imploding. This, in addition to the volatile political situation, deep rooted ethnic hatred and the West stance on a number of specific East African nations=a tinderbox. The PDM still holds secessionist ideologies, a fertile idea for sponsorship.....The devil is knocking on the door! Are we going to open it?

Would love to hear some positive opinions.

The youth are vulnerable, but their vulnerability can be turned into strength. And to do this we must first examine the ideas that are meant to provide the youth with promising futures and sustainable present(s). The ideas behind al Shabaab, or MRC or mungiki don't belong to the twenty first century. They are like the conservative right in Europe, they are rising, but like in Europe citizens are stirring, even Blair has had to contribute his thoughts. Everyone is busy coming up with solutions. So is it for Kenya.

Youths today want to become;

1.Socialites
2.Divas
3.Internet/tv junkies
4.Lighter
5.Thugs

Their Goal in life- Fame.

They want money without putting in hardwork.
No Business/Work sense at all,they live their lives online or wait to be used by the powerful to create disharmony.

There is no such thing as waiting for job opportunities,
Youths need to create their own opportunities and display potential and enthusiasm to do even the least of jobs.
As they do this the opportunities will come along.
A packet of sweets only has a profit of btw sh 60-150.(Nishawahi uza).But ask a young person to hawk sweets uone ATT.
I fear referring/recommending some youths because they can let you down bad style cz of poor work attitude.

I don't think this is true. And besides, one shouldn't be forced to do some job just to prove they're industrious. The young should be able not just to choose what suits them, but also enjoy their work.

Otherwise the youth engage in all sorts of jobs, and they still suffer for it. They carry heavy sacks in marikiti, they polish shoes, sell second hand items, they are artists, they are technologists, recyclers, and do many other jobs.

The youth are demanding 'more in life'. They want to chart different courses from their parents, but they can't, why? The economic system doesn't favor them. That's why they end up rebelling.

You hit it! Kenyan youth are starting to give those of South Sudan a run for their money. Sudd kids-all they aspire when they grow up is pick an AK47 and thats it! Whether in the SPLA or outside.
