President William Ruto has said he aims to have Kenyans working everywhere in the world.
Speaking on Wednesday during a media roundtable interview with journalists, Ruto said the Diaspora is a big resource that Kenyans should tap into.
"I have told you about Diaspora, for example, that is a resource that we can use," Ruto said.
The President said Kenyans are outstanding in every sector and would therefore be able to reap from abroad.
"Kenyans are outstanding, everywhere they go, whether it is in the tourism industry, hospitality industry, in whatever other industry they stand out globally. That is why I am saying we have a resource," he said.
Ruto said he intends to drive the agenda to make sure that they leverage the many Kenyans who have skills that get them working everywhere in the world.
" That is why I have set up a Diaspora Affairs Ministry and there is a PS. I have told her she has no other business and must have Kenyans working everywhere," the President said.
He said every Kenyan working in the Diaspora will be serviced by the government.
The President said that this will, help increase the revenue coming in from the diaspora from Sh400 billion to a trillion.
