@Murchr, yesterday at around 8pm I saw a crowd gathered at some chemist, and I suspected it was about this huduma number and upon inquiry I confirmed that to be the case. Later I gathered that each person was parting with 100 shillings for the service of filling the form!

Today in the middle of last minute rush I overheard someone saying how he spent 200 shillings to bribe the clerks to get the service.

My daughter called to persuade me to take this number so that I could be able to call her otherwise the earlier threat would be carried out!

Others have falsified information like education level or the home county details etc.

Surely @Murchr what have you done to God's people, and to what end have you terrified the masses to participate in an optional exercise?

What is this next phase you are talking about, and is it ethical?


Those who pay bribes do it knowing it's wrong and criminal.

Those who are taking the number want it for future use, its going to be very cumbersome later on if you and your dependants get education, hospital services from govt.

Paying of bribes, whether known to be wrong or not is a matter of power relation where the payer is threatened with a consequence. Is that threat the 'cumbersome' delivery of services where there is no absolute deadline?

Besides, the data base can no longer be deemed truthful. If one can invite the clerks for tea while registering, how can we know that ghost citizens haven't been added to the register?

Next time we will be told that @2012 doesn't have to use a voter ID and that's when we'll know of how rigging has gone tech...

I am yet to see anyone give a rational, coherent reason on why I need to waste my time in the queue to get huduma number.

Come to think of it, is this huduma namba a legal requirement like the ID which everyone needs to acquire after hitting 18? If it's not, then govt can't legally deny you access to services coz you don't have the namba?

Government will use it to frustrate you. For example they might delay Passport processing by claiming that if you had huduma number verification of information could have been easier...

The huduma forms have no special information for that kind of excuse. Moreover, if the government had cause for such an action as frustrating citizens then they should have made the number a must have!

It won't be long before this scam reveals itself for the monster it is.

While in Huduma queue, most of the forms i saw only had National ID number i.e no NHIF/KRA PIN/NSSF/Passport....which makes the Huduma number a 1:1 mapping to ID Number. Hapa serikari imechora a big zero. The Huduma Agent while processing my form with all details had the nerve to complain that people like me who have all the details filled are making his work difficult as it takes longer to key in all details.

My exact view. In most cases only ID number was picked. How on earth then will huduma number be used for other services whose details have not been captured?

Surely, only time will tell Shame on you d'oh!

this huduma number is hard to justify ,if they only need ID then they should have told us they are updating our old IDs with more recent photos. mine is still the good old black and white photo.this has served me well for the last 20+ years .if it aint broke why fix
