• 1 Nov 2023 in Senate: the name of micro financing, but are milking Kenyans dry. They have become shylocks, giving assets to the youths in the pretext of helping them but exploiting them because the Banking Act does not regulate them. If we want to renegotiate some of the misfortunes that we have gotten into as a country; inability to create enough employment, effects of capital flights from the country and migration of investors to the neighbouring countries, we must start by addressing the Banking Act.

That is one of the explanations why mental health issues among the young people are increasing. Additionally, that is why the rate of suicide and family breakups are increasing. We, as a Government and leadership, have not put in place the right procedures, legal framework and policy framework to ensure that those young people who do not have the business experience, but have the acumen to dare take the risk are protected from the exploitive banking sector, which every day wakes up only to ... view
