    "content": "As the Leader of the Minority Party clearly said, there are so many funds out there which have been devolved by previous administrations. The former President Uhuru Kenyatta introduced the Uwezo Fund which was interest-free. Even though someone from the other side said that the Fund has collapsed, it is still there to date. The former President Kibaki introduced the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF). All those funds are there. The Jubilee Administration also introduced the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NG-AAF), which is free money. County Women Representatives use that money to buy items for women and youth. They do not pay it back. They buy umbrellas and boda bodas for free. Therefore, we are being taken for a ride because the Kenya Kwanza Government has now come back to reality. They have seen the reality of Kenya’s economy and have discovered that what they promised is completely impractical. Therefore, they are introducing these regulations with interest so that they can collect money from the hustlers. In my view, they should continue giving out money like they did during the campaigns. Give mama mbogas and boda boda s money which should not be refundable. How do mamambogas refund money? They display their wares beside the roads. They do not even have shops or bank accounts."
