"Personally, I’ve come to the conclusion that in Kenya, and probably in a lot of emerging markets, if you want to scale a SaaS business, your customer has to be the government. One tender can cover your whole year. The private market just isn’t there yet."
Thoughts on this?

Replying to @Kenyans
Even if you claim to be using your own money, this raises even more serious questions. How did you, Mr. President, who officially earns Ksh 1.4 million per month (about Ksh 17 million a year), accumulate Ksh 1.2 billion in personal disposable cash to build a private church on public property?
It does not add up by any reasonable standard of income vs expenditure. Unless you can show audited personal business records or asset declarations proving legitimate sources of such immense wealth, the public is right to suspect misuse of office, kickbacks, or proceeds of corruption.
Additionally, why would you build a personal church inside State House, which is public property, even if you paid for construction out of pocket? That amounts to using a public institution for personal or sectarian benefit it still violates the principle of separation between church and state, and it misuses state facilities for private religious purposes.
In fact, using your personal money to build a church on public grounds is even more troubling: it suggests you see State House as your private domain to decorate as you wish, instead of respecting it as a neutral national institution that belongs to all Kenyans.
Let’s also not forget that you are the same president whose administration has faced multiple allegations of corruption inflated tenders, unaccounted borrowing, suspicious procurement deals. So it is not unreasonable for Kenyans to question whether this ‘personal money’ is truly clean, or simply laundered through state contracts and kickbacks.

We’ve been working at Westlands school to help equip the teachers to apply the CBC music curriculum. Our director Moses Watatua led a training with teachers. This is something we’d love to do in other schools, support government schools in implementing the CBC music curriculum
