They're talking as if they're the one creating jobs in Germany.

[joshuamwendwa]

What worries is when and how to apply is never communicated nor clear.

[felistermachuki]

Whatever she is saying has been the case since 15 years ago.
Nothing new!

Human beings are commodity like coffee, flowers and goods!

People are willing to cross the USA border and do any kind of job. But people are complaining about going to Germany to do the same thing. When you go abroad, for most people, you will have to start from the bottom, unless you're going there as a student and you get the education from that country. Then you might get a job related to that education.

There apparently is an Invites' Only Germany-Kenya Jobs fair to be held on 27th.
And its registration is complete and no one even knows when it started.

Post COVID developed nations lost a huge number of old folks, many retired before their time to avoid the virus. Younger folks aren't motivated to work for employers who don't offer great benefits. Hence the need for labor. Kenya Govt is rewarding politicians and higher civil service with outrageous salaries and abnormal allowances for a poverty stricken nation instead of investing in the pp. Developed nations the private sector is the main employer and rewards it's employees for productivity. Politicians and civil service doesn't improve the economy

450 million Indians have similarly settled Overseas NEVER TO RETURN TO POVERTY of so called fastest DGP No 3 in world.

[KingCyrus-iwyx]

The German Vice Chancellor clearly said that they’re 250 000 available jobs, not for Kenyans alone but for other nationalities who possess the skills needed. Ni kizungu ama ni kuelewa ndiyo shida

[-bzkr]

Kizungu mingi. What is her job again? Another waste of tax payer money. What has she done about the Saudi Arabia issue?

[airommata]

Why did the president state as if it was agreed that 250k Kenyans will go to Germany as per the deal? And the PS says 250k is the size of the labor market

[gucheddie]

People like Roseline are the real enemies of Kenyans, Ruto gets too much credit. He has very capable evil minds helping him. Roseline is a Harvard graduate people.

[ronaldkatananyali]

Politicians and corrupt civil service is why talented youths cant get employment or start businesses

[GodservantDan]

I am so surprised that the president could sign an agreement that any Kenyan in Germany without legal papers be repatriated back to Kenya, when in fact he could negotiate with the Germany Government and request them to give them papers.
My questions:
1)Who is going to recruit these skilled workers to come to Germany?
2) Who is going to pay for the process considering that using agents is a very expensive thing that no ordinary mwananchi can manage?
3) Those dive drivers we saw who have already traveled to Germany, how did they get there and when did this thing really start? Are they really skilled drivers or what does skilled workers really mean?
4)How is the government going to benefit through this arrangement?

5) These so called recruiters, how were they picked up to take up that role? Was there any advert for that role?

"Health care workers"is working in nursing homes. Be prepared to change adult daipers. She has clearly said they have aging population. The good jobs are for young Germans.

[jinglescyber]

Germans are racists' i wish that you can follow the train issues regarding to deaths, racism, but maybe they have changed.

[MohamedIdd-xl]

Just imagine Germany 🇩🇪 population Is 85 plus million kenyan 50 plus yet Germany doesn't have young people 😳 to work for there country 😳 emotional damage 😢 😕 😳 😅

[manilalgohil]

We have maids being thrown down and murdered overseas!

[emmyjumba]

Its not easy as said; they have to meet strictly the German immigration act " its clear as said and no politiking as we are used to! I believe no corruption in this

[aheudit]

We agree that it's good to create jobs, we support, but the jobs there are going to get there 90% would be manual (farms, household jobs etc) it's not slavery but modern day slaves like Jobs. I would expect an agreement to build infrastructure, promote agriculture and employee people locally, while on the other hand handing over the for example the Kenyan airport to an individual who(and CS Chirchir clearly stated that some KAA staff can voluntarily accept some money and resign. Africans and Kenyans in particular should use their heads rather than stomachs and pockets.
