The best part is you get to register your phone number to Mpesa once you turn 18! It is literally every Kenyan child's dream. And you can buy airtime, Data, deposit money to your bank account and vice versa, make payments as low as buying fruits from the streets, send and receive money and bail out your friends and family in seconds. You can also use it in other East African countries so you only need your phone and ID to withdraw money on Mpesa agents while on vacation.

I always tell people Kenya could be Africa's economic giant in 10 years, I came to that realization last year after seeing how democratic their constitution came into play and I still believe so.
Sad part is that we've never known the team that worked on M-Pesa the devs, the marketers etc. We should have a documentary and hear the story of mpesa through the experiences of these pioneers
Kenya has a very beautiful and brilliant population. They never cease to puzzle me. Apart from our sirkal(government) letting us down, Kenya is an awesome country.
@@truethots3088 Stop with ur hidden conceitedness. The white guy is a CEO who was hired by the company. The mpesa was an idea developed by a young university guy who sold the idea to them.
@@truethots3088 Yes something like that he received very little money from it compared to what it's worth right now, wish he had patented it. Big regret on his side.
@Project Fi Wireless kenya economy is leader in east and central Africa. Kenya GDP is $88bn for 45 mm people Ethiopia is $85 bn for 90mn people. Ghana gdp $ 47 bn for 30mn people Tanzania $52 bn for 57 mn people. Clearly Kenya is richer than all this countries and it is has no minerals. I always say Africa should admire and learn from Kenya. But many countries are rising which is good.
@@ilovejesus9303 I'm Kenyan so I'm just offended by your no brainer. Idk where your from but facts speak for themselves. Kenyans are not American puppets infact if you checked you would have seen how the US is always anti Kenyan and even our presidents are ever fighting with US. We don't joke with people who called us a hotbed of terrorism. Secondly we have high foreign exchange with tourism being our highest revenue earner. Why? Because we have great places to visit . Another thing is the genuine drive to work hard yes people are in the US but then show me a busdiness opportunity anywhere in the world and I'l show you a Kenyan who is already there. We wotk hard we believe in taking opportunity. What do you do? maybe create some in your country before being so negative Nancy.

M-pesa was founded by a group of researchers and innovators both local and foreign but working on prototypes in Kenya under Vodafone and it seems it can't be accrued to one individual. Those stories of a student from JKUAT or whatever seem to be fabricated lies.

I'm Kenyan, very proud. But I have to say this...We stand no chance against places like South Africa and Nigeria in the economic space if we don't get our house in order. Not just regarding the type of leaders we have, but also as far as technology companies are concerned. Other than M-pesa, it's hard to think of big tech companies that are creating an impact on a global scale Kenya needs to support her innovators significantly to be able to get to the point where we have services, products and applications that can compete on an international level. That being said. We need to start by being transparent in innovation ...people need to stop stealing and running away with other peoples ideas. & we need to be told the truth about how M-pesa was founded! Until we get to a point where we give innovators the credit they deserve we'll continue to discourage innovation .
Nigeria relies solely on oil, which is why their economy stagnated when oil prices fell. I'd say the leading countries in Africa will be Ethiopia (Which is dubbed the new China and will be the manufacturing capital of Africa due to cheap labor and the fact that Chinese companies are moving there fast) and Kenya (Which will be the tech capital of Africa. That's where tech companies go to test the waters when they're trying to enter the African market)

@@samoche4614 I believe the question was "which country will lead Africa in the next 20 years?" rather than "which country has the largest economy in Africa today?" My answer to the former is Ethiopia followed by Kenya and I gave the reasons for my answer. Nigeria's economy has been shrinking since oil prices fell and the trend is expected to continue for a few more years. Ethiopia, on the other hand, is among the fasted growing countries in the world and as long as they sustain their current growth, they should become Africa's largest economy in a few decades. Kenya and Tanzania have also been growing strongly and they're in a good position to be among the top economies in Africa in 20 years, should the current growth be sustained. Nigeria needs to diversify its economy for it to be among the top economies by 2038. Nigeria's current FDI has done little to save the country from a recession; it's just not good enough if the economy is barely growing.
fckingkim I agree Ethiopia in terms of labour market and in politics is moving forward. I mean 50% of the seats in parliament are held by women where as in Nigeria there is still a halt on women in most employment field.
Unfortunately it flopped in South Africa due to lack of demand. It was terminated back in 2016. It had about 76000 users in RSA compared to Kenya which has more than 11 million users.
