The people who promised Kshs6,000 one-off as a grand are known. Regarding the Hustler Fund - and the Cabinet Secretary is here, he will confirm to us - from the get go, everybody who borrowed knew that the scheme is that you borrow, pay; you build a credit history and are able to grow your limit. The question that I have for the Cabinet Secretary is, if we can have a record which he can provide now or later of the approximate number of Kenyans that borrow on a daily basis and that are active on this platform, so that we are able to know how they are able to achieve this figure of Kshs70 billion. That is not a small amount. In fact, there are only two or three banks in this country that can lend out such a similar amount out there. Therefore, it would be important for this House to know from the CS how many ordinary citizens borrow and pay on a daily basis. I thank you."}
