He also outlined one of his key policies for supporting families.

“One of the first things I want to implement is to give KSh 10,000 to young men who have one or two children. This amount can go up to KSh 20,000 per month to help them buy essentials like food and diapers. This support will also help stimulate the economy,” Hashi explained.
