“My priorities, once elected the MP for Isiolo North will be inthe areas of education and security with an emphasis on technical skills to address the issue of unemployment as well as curb insecurity. If education is catered for in the model I am advocating in Isiolo, it would solve several other issues and as you know, dealing with an educated society is easier to solve their problems,” she said.

If our children who don’t go to college or those who drop out of school enrol for technical education, they will be equipped with skills to allow then secure employment and this will solve the escalation rate of un-employment in our society. When you solve unemployment, you solve insecurity,” Mworia noted at one of her past interviews.
