"content": "end, we decided it has to be banned. It was very devastating for many SMEs in this country. This happened simply because we do not have a national policy that is coherent about different economic sectors. For example, one that can bring harmony and ensure there is a conducive environment for SMEs to operate. We know very well that each business is a chain. I will give an example. Gikomba Market takes care of millions of Kenyans. We have a business chain that starts with the person who brings or imports the mitumba . This person will come to the market and another one will come to open the bales. Then we will have young people who will sort out the items in the bales. We will then have those who will buy and say: “This is camera!” We also have those who will iron the clothes. You see, we have created jobs for different cadres! There is a person who just irons; one who buys what they call 'camera'; and one who picks what is remaining. There is a commission you give for everyone you see within the streets selling one or two things. Therefore, when you close that business suddenly, you leave millions wondering where they will get their bread from."
