Mvita MP Mohammed Machele has urged President William Ruto to prioritize the employment of youth from Mvita and Mombasa at large in the newly commissioned Mombasa Railway Commuter Station.

Speaking during the official launch of the facility, Machele emphasized that local youth deserve first consideration for available opportunities.

"Mr. President, there are many offices and job opportunities within this station that require personnel. My humble request is that priority be given to the youth of Mvita and Mombasa," he said.

The legislator also lauded the government for actualizing the project, noting its impact on easing transport costs for residents.

"Our people will no longer need to spend Kshs 1,000 on taxi fare. With just Kshs 50, they can now travel from town to the SGR terminus in Miritini. This is a huge relief, and we are grateful," Machele remarked.

He further appreciated ongoing development projects in Mombasa, pledging continued support President Ruto.

"We are truly thankful for the many projects you have initiated in Mombasa. To us, this is a debt of gratitude, and we promise to walk with you on your 2027 journey. You can count on our support," he added.
