Millennials age group are born in 1980-1995, Centennials are from 1996 - 2016. there are a lot of differences especially here in Kenya.
Millennials were born and raised during President Moi's era and they went through a lot of hardship because the economy back then was struggling. Another thing worth noting is that there was no technological advancement no smartphones and mobile phones it was landline phones, only a few could afford mobile phones and they costed a fortune.
Millennial's parents were brought up during Kenyatta's era and the Kenyan economy was ok back then. Coffee, Tea, and other agricultural sector had money so the economy was doing fine. Things were not as bad. However, due to westernization millennials parents only wanted their children to get white-collar jobs so they pushed the millennials to read books and do Engineering, Doctor, Law, etc
