ICT CS Joe Mucheru has appointed former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chief executive officer Ezra Chiloba as member of Youth Enterprise Development Fund board for a period of three years.
The Youth Enterprise Development Fund is a state corporation under the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Youth Affairs focused on enterprise development as a key strategy that will increase economic opportunities for, and participation by Kenyan Youth in nation building.
The Fund seeks to create employment opportunities for young people through entrepreneurship and encouraging them to be job creators and not job seekers. It does this by providing easy and affordable financial and business development support services to youth who are keen on starting or expanding businesses.
Chiloba was sacked from IEBC in October 2018 after serving a three-month compulsory leave since April 2018, which was turned into a suspension on June 14, 2018.
His sacking was attributed to flawed procurement process during the run to 2017 general election.
