Former President Daniel Moi has questioned US President Barack Obama's Young African Leaders Initiative. Moi said he has taken a lot of interest on the mentor ship programme initiated by Obama as there were many questions on its real intention. The former President questioned the selection criteria of the youth, its inclusiveness and what exactly was being taught to the trainees. He said Kenyans should be explained to clearly on how the beneficiaries are chosen, the curriculum of the training and how the beneficiaries intend to ascend to leadership position. "I have read the story with a lot of interest however some questions need to be answered. Who are these young leaders? Who selected them and what is the subject area taught?" said Moi. The former president was reacting to a story ran yesterday where President Obama met 500 African youths who have been training in the US under Young African leadership initiative, among the youths were 47 Kenyans.
