Kenyan teachers set to leave for America jobs

Secretary of Investments and Entrepreneurship Isaiya Kabira and Skills and Expertise Division director at the ministry Irene Karari graced the departure ceremony of the selected teachers.

The ministry noted that the initiative plays a key role in the ongoing efforts by the government to source job opportunities abroad in a bid to enhance Kenya’s socio-economic development.

"In line with the mandate of @Diaspora_KE to promote the welfare of the Kenyan diaspora, the recruitment initiative offers comprehensive support during the transition period through pre-departure sessions," said the ministry in a statement.

President William Ruto's government has been making bold efforts to export Kenyan labour abroad including a deal with Germany to provide 250,000 job opportunities which was set to be effected before June 2024.

The Head of State has also stated that he has held numerous negotiations with other nations to provide job opportunities for Kenyan youths, urging the Kenya Kwanza legislators to aid him sufficiently to achieve his ambitions.
