Nakuru Town West Member of Parliament Samuel Arama has challenged young people to take active role in church.
He said it was not in order to see only senior citizens in active roles in the church.
According to him, the young people should take over once the seniors retire.
“The senior citizens in the choir have danced well until i felt like my brother was still alive. But I think we should ensure more yoith because the wazee are now retiring” he said.
Arama once again called on local administrators in the area to up in the fight against illicit brew.
He noted the brew is rendering young people non-productive.
The lawmaker was speaking at Mwongori, in Nyamira during burial of his brother Peter Keen Arama who succumbed after a short illness.
He eulogized his brother as a man who took seriously church issues and was very active.
In honour of his brother, the lawmaker promised to buy uniform for all the choirs that performed at the funeral service.
“The reason why you see the church leadership active is because my brother was active when it comes to church” he said.
The MP thanked all those who stood with him during the hard times.
It should be noted that hundreds of Nakuru residents travelled to Nyamira for the burial.
