Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir has raised his concern over the rising trends of juvenile crime in the county.

Speaking on Friday at his office  during the handing over of bursaries worth 2 million shillings by the Shining Hope for Communities popularly known as SHOFCO, Nassir warned those involved in the criminal activities of dire conseqeuneces.

"Enough is enough! We wont tolerate juvenile gangs terrorizing innocent residents of Mombasa." said Nassir.

Adding " The County Government has done its part to keep our youth meaningfully engaged during the holidays. If they get caught doing the wrong things, we will hold them and their parents accountable."

Nassir also challenged parents to monitor and take responsibility of their Children.

"Why is it that this cases only happen when Children are on break from school, this shows that parents are failing in their responsibilities ." argued Nassir.

The Governor also challenged the courts not to give out bails and bonds to Children charged with crime.
