Opus Dei is a rock integrity wise - but innovation wise - he is deaf stone.

Prof Njunguna was rock innovation wise.

This is why sometimes a little corruption may be better than zero corruption zero imagination zero innovation.

People who've done business will tell you - the best employers are sometimes very crafty - ambitious - risk taking - the worse will wait for you to do everything - you can as well become self-employed.

In short integrity is not an end to itself - you can fold your hand/brainss and not steal anything - but it better if your brains open up and see opportunities.

Africa cannot afford leaders who are not creative, problem solvers, innovative, ambitious, and go-getter. The developed (the past tense) can - as people worries there are just maintaining the status quo - of living same standards like their parents.

Anyway, my prayer is Ruto will pick another Njunguna at the central bank - someone not afraid to experiment policy wise - while taking care of the bottom-line. There is time for everthing. Cheserem use to personally sign everything as he came to CBK at time of serious graft by Kotut. Mulei start well before Angoleasing took him.

Njunguna became hero for m-pesa and agent banking. Now his brief is to find another hero like him to drive financial innovation further - maybe even ban cash transactions in kenya.

This time and age I am still required to physically go to the bank and open a CDS account. This has totally put me off, that is inspired of holding 3 different accounts with Kenyan banks and all.my details.
Why shouldn't it be easier if it was linked to one account and opened via an app?

Central bank remain archaic as opus dei fear innovation
