A State-backed project aimed at training up to up to a million youth a year for freelance online jobs is back on track after a stutter due to lack of funds, ICT, Innovation and Youth Affairs Secretary Joe Mucheru has said.
The digital skills training programme dubbed Ajira Initiative, was slowed down by cash woes, attaining only 18 percent of its target, after the State reallocated its budget to other projects.
