AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> Deputy President William Ruto has expressed excitement by sharing a video in which the hustler movement narrative was being discussed in the Tanzanian parliament.<\/p>\n

The DP shared a video on Saturday, March 13 where a member of the parliament explained how the hustler movement in Kenya was becoming a force to reckon with.<\/p>\n

“In our neighbouring country (Kenya),\u00a0there’s an element of hustling\u00a0that is taking over the country. Everyone, even those in formal employment who is working they have a side hustle. It is a part of their life,” the MP is heard explaining.<\/p>\n

The legislator when further to compare with the Tanzanian culture where most people were content with being in employment.<\/p>\n

“Here in Tanzania, most people only opt for land as an investment, the worst part is that they do not do anything with the land, they just leave it bare,” he stated.<\/p>\n

The Tanzanian MP noted that they needed to have a multi-sectoral approach to address unemployment among youth in their country adding that most were after desk jobs.<\/p>\n

“In Kenya, young people do not see anything wrong with going to the farms, using wheelbarrows, as long as they get to earn a living and they are even able to be employers,” the legislator explained.<\/p>\n

DP Ruto has in recent months amplified the Hustler Movement narrative using the wheelbarrow a symbol of empowering the youth in their various ventures.<\/p>\n

However, in February 2021, the National Assembly Security Committee\u00a0drafted a\u00a0bill aimed\u00a0to punish people who propagate class division in the country with those found\u00a0guilty\u00a0sentenced to five years in prison or required to pay\u00a0a Ksh5 million fine.<\/p>\n

Coming to Ruto’s defence was ODM leader Raila Odinga\u00a0who discouraged the MPs\u00a0from\u00a0proceeding with their plan arguing that all Kenyans should be allowed to exercise the freedom of speech.<\/p>\n

“I would strongly appeal to members of parliament to drop any attempts to legislate against this otherwise deadly slogan.<\/p>\n

“As a country, we fought for and should respect free speech and association. We should be able to allow the Deputy President and his team to continue with their chosen slogan without any inhibitions. Those of us who see its dangers should continue educating our people against falling for it,” noted Raila.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
