Licence has been given, now it's time to walk the talk. Time to crack the nut

Details on source of funding for paying the license



This information is extremely vital, I wonder why they have been so cagey about it.


Now we know.

License fee of $850mn paid,they got other sources.

I boarded matatus and offered to pay by MPESA. All the condas refused, infact in one case I was politely asked to leave the mat if I don't have cash, which I did. In the other case, the conda shouted to the other passengers that they will not accept MPESA.

It seems hii mambo ya kulipa fare na MPESA will not be easy, matatu guys are simply stuck to their ways.


The matatu industry is special. Mpesa is now a universal payment system in Kenya. Si ata Ndege tunalipa na mpesa?
It's one thing paying 4k+ by M-Pesa and another paying 20-100 using M-Pesa.


No difference! I use Mpesa at the kiosk, shoe shine, barbershop, mama mboga and many other micro businesses.


You have CBK enforced waivers to thank for that. Before Covid, every single one of those micro businesses insisted I send them "pesa za kutoa", if i wanted to pay by M-pesa. From Jan2021, they'll revert back. Effectively, only the middle class, (about 30% of the population?) pays M-pesa fees. I would like to see the low income guys buy goods from you via "Pay Bill" with a fee, when they have the option to pay by cash.


As expected....

Ethiopia is such a mess right now I am not even sure this is good news. Dead Tigrayans are showing up in Sudan rivers and TPLF is gearing up ready for war. Communication systems in the country have been blocked and there's very little information coming out of that country.

And now the Ethiopian government asks civilians to join the army as fighting escalates. Things are thick.

Ethiopia is about to explode.
The largest ethnic group rebels Oromo liberation defence forces and Tigray people liberation forces have teamed up on a war against the government.
