The spouse of Deputy President Pastor Dorcas Gachagua, Tuesday called for sustained efforts in reclaiming the boy child from ruins.
Pastor Dorcas observed that already thousands of youth in the country were trapped in drug abuse yet efforts to help them were little and far between.
She especially reprimanded the church for not doing enough to complement the wider efforts by the government to reach out to the boy child.
"The affirmative action heavily tilts in empowering our girls yet we have left our boys stranded on the wayside. This is unacceptable," Ms Gachagua told a gathering of Bishops at Getembe Church of God in Kisii Tuesday morning.
Kenya, she says, is losing more of its youthful generation to violence and accidents adding that of the 45 people killed daily on motorbike accidents, more are boys.
"We are at a critical stage of history where we need conversations about our boys. We must recover the boy child at all costs," she said.
The dreams and aspirations of the boy child must be made more secure by stakeholders.
"We must recover the dreams and visions of the boy child at all costs This is the same child who wakes up at 4. 00 am to ferry you to work yet we little take cognizance of the challenges they are going through," Bishop Gachagua said.
Thousands of male youth are nursing long-term ailments with more others abusing drugs on the streets.
She cited Mombasa as one of the regions with the highest number of boys abusing drugs urging that the church and mosque should forge a strong partnership in addressing the problem.
"It is important that focus be directed at them, to revive their hope and make their dream flourish again," she said.
Many drug addicts, she added, are still willing to be attended to and rehabilitated yet no one is going for them.
"It is time the church and mosque opened doors to them, let the leaders take them to the rehab and reclaim their souls from ruins."
She told church leaders to stop idling in the pulpit preaching alone as youth suffer.
"Our call as leaders is not sitting in four corner halls to preach but to also go forth and talk to those getting lost," she added.
Pastor Dorcas is in Kisii for a two-day tour.
She will also visit Kisii University where she will talk on prevention against alcohol, drugs, and substance abuse among the boy child.
On Wednesday she will tour Kisii High School for a similar talk.
