    50 young Kenyans depart for jobs in Russia under a government job export plan Will work at a food packaging company with a net salary of Ksh115,000 monthly Free housing and meals provided by employer, with embassy support in Moscow Airfare and recruitment covered by Uwezo Fund loan, repayable after settling Labour CS Alfred Mutua: “This is a new beginning for many” More batches expected as international job demand grows A Take-Off With Promise A group of 50 Kenyan youth flew out to Russia on Wednesday night, marking the launch of a state-supported labour export drive meant to address growing unemployment. The young workers are heading to Moscow to begin jobs at a food packaging factory, a move Labour CS Dr. Alfred Mutua described as “a milestone worth celebrating.” The send-off took place at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, where Dr. Mutua personally bid farewell to the first batch, drawn from different counties across the country. Earning While Abroad, Investing Back Home Each worker will take home a monthly net salary of Ksh115,000, with free meals and accommodation included. The government has also made arrangements for continued support through the Kenyan Embassy in Moscow. Mutua urged the youth to send money back to Kenya, encouraging regular saving through local banks and long-term planning. “They’ve waited long, some for years without work. Now they can rebuild,” he said. No Upfront Cost, Just Opportunity None of the beneficiaries had to dig into their pockets to travel. The Uwezo Fund stepped in to cover all costs, including tickets and recruitment fees. Repayment of the loan will begin after the workers have settled into their new roles abroad. Upon landing in Russia, they were welcomed by embassy officials, with Ambassador Peter Mathuki set to host and guide them through the onboarding process. Transparent Selection and Expansion Plans Mutua lauded YUMNA, the agency that handled recruitment, for keeping the selection fair and ethical. He emphasized that more opportunities are coming, and the initiative will grow based on demand in other countries. Several workers gave thanks to President William Ruto, calling the opportunity a chance to “transform their families and change their future.” More to Come This marks just the beginning of Kenya’s overseas job strategy, a plan aimed at offering structured, safe, and well-paying jobs for Kenyan youth beyond borders — while turning unemployment into opportunity.
