Hustle Yako

Surely, there must be a threshold for public office! Kenya is already poorly governed as it is! #WhosYourLeader?

The Elections (Amendment) Bill, 2021 will be introduced in the Senate for 1st reading in July when the lawmakers resume plenary sessions. Do you support this? #InvolveYouthKE @elogkenya @siasaplace @YoungMPsKenya @IEBCKenya @YoungMCAs_kenya @WhosYourLeader @IFES1987

We can sit in a history lesson as we have been doing for the past almost 60 years, licking our wounds or begin to fix things. I choose the latter. #HustleYako Iendelee!

STATEMENT ON @HUSTLEYAKO INITIATIVE'S POSITION ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT We feel it prudent to respond to sentiments from quarters against the empowerment of Career Professionals, Entrepreneurs and Business People who are at the bottom of the economic pyramid.

We want everyone to earn. We want everyone to thrive - be it on the golden-plated desks or in the dusty marketplace. Leadership is about fixing the economy.

Leadership is about empathy. Leadership is about providing solutions for all, not just the 'chosen few.' Kenya desperately needs a new crop of leaders who will change the narrative. Kenya needs a new crop of leaders who will change policy and reset government priorities.

We can't all be fortune 500 company CEOs either. However, we can all thrive in whatever we choose to do and we can all make money, feed our families and get ahead, regardless of our station in life.

For the record, the #HustleYako Development Agenda & Youth Movement has never been & will never be elitist. Those side-chatting us saying we can't fit in car wash business or fruit vending in market also need to know that we can't all sit in carpeted offices with glass ceilings.

Young people and the business community at large just need an enabling environment to trade. The truth is that this government has intentionally sabotaged the economy via state capture, draconian policies and commercial suppression.

We stand with those who are persevering all forms of agony every single day as they struggle to make ends meet.

For the longest time, government has neglected the informal sector. This oversight needs to be corrected. This sector needs to be prioritized. Note, majority of Kenyans are in the informal sector not by choice, but to make ends meet. There are no jobs. Businesses have collapsed.

Every hustle matters. Every Career, Business or Entrepreneurial Venture needs to be respected. Be it being an IT Firm CEO or a Hustler selling fruits - every hustle matters! We will not desist from empowering those who are in the blue-collar jobs to better sustain themselves.

Equitable distribution of resources for us means giving everyone a chance to make it in life and putting everyone in a position to win.

The status quo is such that most Kenyans are living below a dollar a day (100 bob per day i.e. less than 3k per month). The status quo is that a very few number are minting millions.

Many of those who brush off the empowerment of the downtrodden are Kenya's greatest enemies of development. Why should it make people so angry to see a mama mboga, a chali wa mtura or a bodaboda rider getting ahead? Because it will distablize the status quo.

However, an empowered man or woman is an independent mind, a thinker and a choice maker.
