    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Yesterday, I went on the Hansard questioning how a private company was approved to collect biodata from Kenyans. I sought to know whether public participation was done before authorization of the activity. Does it mean that in financial matters we do not do public participation? You realize that everything we do ends up in court, if we do not do public participation. Who are the officers who approved the exercise? The exercise was not just conducted at KICC. Those guys are in all the hubs. At the Hub in Karen and at every shopping mall, there was a team collecting biodata. Our young people were there and their biodata was being taken. As much as we are talking about Shakahola, we will get another “Shakahola ” in this matter; a shakahola of young people who have no idea why they are being given money, and who have no idea that after they have received the US$65, they cannot withdraw and do anything with it yet they have already received it. If somebody has come to collect biodata in Kenya so that he can go around the world saying he has numbers and people have joined in the way we were doing Bitcoin and the rest, it is very wrong. Before anything, we want the Government to tell us who these people are. We should be told their names, where they come from and their home country. Why is it that they are not doing it in their home country but they can come to a Third World country called Kenya and do it?"
