A female youth leader and political analyst from Kenya\u2019s Tharaka Nithi county has expressed her dissatisfaction with the region\u2019s lack of marriageable men.<\/h2>\n
Anita Nkirote, a single woman, said the number of husband materials in the region is frighteningly low since they have all resorted to alcoholism.<\/p>\n
The University of Nairobi graduate said she searched for a husband material in Tharaka Nithi and even went as far as Meru county, but was unsuccessful.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, October 7, Nkirote added that drunkenness was also leading to mental health concerns in the region during a Mt Kenya Foundation meeting with leaders led by One Kenya Alliance (OKA) leadership at Safari Park Hotel.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis has bedevilled our young men to an extent some of them are not even married. As we speak today, I am not married. I have looked around in Tharaka Nithi and even Meru and it is a big issue,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The youth leader also urged the politicians to look into the issue of unemployment in Central Kenya.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe issue of unemployment is caused by a lack of economic expansion. Our economy is not expanding at a fast rate as our young graduates. We are talking about the issues of internship and mentorship for our youth,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

In reaction, Walter Anga expressed sadness over the arrest while asking if the Nigerian Army can do what they did to Agu to any Northerner. He added that Northerners go unharmed even by wearing camo on the streets.<\/p>\n
