Worldcoin Crackdown: Parliament Forms Special Committees to Probe Sam Altman’s Crypto Operations in Kenya

The Parliament of Kenya intends to investigate Worldcoin’s large-scale processing and handling of users’ sensitive biometric data, collected through retinal scans in exchange for a World ID and reportedly a token worth Ksh7,000.

On Tuesday, August 15, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetang’ula, launched a probe into Worldcoin (WLD) after the Members of Parliament raised concerns about data protection and privacy risks that come with the new crypto technology and what the government was doing to protect the citizens whose data were harvested by the chrome Orb.

The majority of the MPs pointed fingers at the Interior Cabinet Secretary (CS) Prof Kithure Kindiki, his counterpart Eliud Owalo at the Information, Communications and the Digital Economy docket and the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC), despite the data watchdog’s successful last-minute rush to court for orders to bar Worldcoin from accessing the collected information amid security evaluation.

Data Commissioner Immaculate Kassait appeared before the Departmental Committee on Communication, Information, and Innovation of the National Assembly, and its Chair, Dagoretti South MP John Kiarie, wanted to know why her office had not rushed to the courts with the same speed after she confessed to knowing Worldcoin’s dubious operations from April 2022, subsequently writing a letter to them seeking clarity over its collection, storage, and use of customer data on the 19th of the same month and receiving a response from Worldcoin on May 6, 2022.

“It took the intervention of the committee to access the trail of correspondences, and the committee will go through this. Of concern to us, is are Kenyans safe, is their data safe or is it being exploited to be used in a technology that no one seems to be taking responsibility over?” Posed Kiarie.

Despite Worldcoin getting a license from the ODPC, Kassait maintained that even though the web3 startup was issued with a certificate of registration, it does not mean it is compliant with the entire Data Protection Act but only its Sections 18 and 19. [The Data Protection Act PDF)

Members of parliament interrogate kenyan data controller over worldcoin saga — Data Commissioner Immaculate Kassait appears before the Communication, Information and Innovation committee at Parliament Buildings on August 15, 2023.

“Under the circumstances, it was induced compliance with the data protection regulations since Kenyans had to accept the terms for their data to be taken in exchange for Worldcoin tokens,” she said.

After her presentation, the Chair of the Committee adjourned the session for next Friday, citing unsatisfactory submissions from Kassait. Kiarie now wants the Data Commissioner to make her next week’s submissions in writing and should state how Worldcoin bypassed authorities to start its operations in Kenya.

Now, to advance the investigation on the matter, Speaker Wetang’ula has directed the Committee led by Kiarie to form a special team of fifteen members drawn from the Administration and Internal Security Committee and that of Wildlife and Tourism.

Each of the three Committees’ Chair will nominate three members from the Majority and three from the Minority while factoring in themselves to come up with a balanced team that will take on the Worldcoin case and submit its analysis late next month.

“The mandate of the Joint Committee is to inquire into the activities and operations of Worldcoin in Kenya and that the relevant Ministries, Departments, and Agencies, whose mandates have a bearing on the matter. Speaker Wetang’ula directed that the Joint Committee should consider and inquire into the matter and submit its report by Thursday, 28th September 2023.” A statement from the Parliament of Kenya reads.

The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner said it is yet to establish the number of people whose data is with Worldcoin.

President Ruto Shows a Human Side, Reintroduces Fuel Subsidies to Protect Struggling Kenyans

EPRA petrol new prices after President William Ruto subsidy

To cushion the impact of blowing petroleum prices linked to the international market, President William Ruto’s government announced Monday a countermeasure, fuel subsidies, in a major shift to shield households, businesses, and other consumers from price shocks that have proved unmanageable in the trying economic moments.

The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) unveiled the measure saying that without the intervention of the previously done away fuel subsidies, consumers would pay a price of more than Ksh200 per liter of petrol, Ksh183.26 for diesel, and kerosene at Ksh175.22 for a group that is already suffering from high levels of unemployment and other uncertainties.

“In order to cushion consumers from the spike in pump prices as a consequence of the increased landed costs, the government has opted to stabilize pump prices for the August-September pricing cycle,” a statement from EPRA reads.

However, despite the launch of the subsidy program, the prices of fuel in Kenya remain unchanged at Ksh194.68 (petrol), Ksh179.67 (diesel), and Ksh169.48 (kerosene) in Nairobi for the months of August-September.

In Mombasa, motorists will cash out Ksh191.62 for petrol, Ksh176.63 for a litre of diesel, and Ksh166.43 for kerosene, while in Nakuru, they will pay Ksh193.77, Ksh179.14, and Ksh168.99 for a litre of petrol, diesel, and kerosene, respectively.

In the frontiers of Northern Kenya, consumers will be hit extra hard in the pocket as they will not be spared in the latest EPRA review. With reluctant generosity, the people of Mandera will buy a litre of petrol at Ksh208.68, diesel at Ksh193.67, and Ksh183.49 for Kerosene, a bit higher than their counterparts in Moyale, who will pay Ksh204.81, Ksh189.80, and Ksh179.60 for the same, meaning that the Kenyan govt has subsidized petrol for Ksh7.33, diesel for Ksh3.59 and kerosene for Ksh5.74 from Tuesday and these areas do not benefit because of expensive overland transit and wage gaps.

The good news is that EPRA Director General Daniel Kiptoo has encouraged Kenyans to feel protected despite many of them grumbling about the recently imposed President Ruto’s Finance Act 2023, blaming it for the rising cost of living.

President Ruto had managed to hold down the fuel subsidy program for nearly three months from May 14 after shelving it due to the new International Monetary Fund financing policy, which roughly demands that, as an African country, remove fuel subsidies and adopt green energy to get a penny from us.

Explainer: What Safaricom Mpesa Limit Increase to Ksh500K Means

August 14, 2023

Has the new Ksh500,000 Mpesa limit affected transaction costs?

While Mpesa transfer is, without doubt, one of the most convenient ways of settling bills and making regular payments and purchases for many Kenyans, there are Mpesa account limits of which customers should be aware, especially after its recent review, announced on August 14, 2023.

Effective to all customers from August 15, Safaricom PLC has raised Mpesa account limits to Ksh500,000 after winning a gesture of approval from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), the supervisor and regulator of banks and other important financial institutions, in this case, Mpesa.

The new threshold, up from Ksh300,000, is expected to reshape the payments landscape by creating new use cases as well as expanding the existing ones, particularly for vendor and supplier payments for businesses.

“The increased account limits will provide customers and especially small businesses with increased convenience as the share of cashless transactions continues to rise,” Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa said while announcing the changes.

latest Mpesa updates August 2023 — Peter Ndegwa – CEO, Safaricom PLC.

However, despite the shift of Mpesa limits from Ksh300K to Ksh500K, the amount you can transfer at one moment still stands at Ksh150,000, meaning that to take advantage of the expanded limit, you will have to send Ksh150,000 thrice to amount of Ksh450,000 and move the remaining amount separately to hit the Ksh500,000 cap.

Why does Mpesa Have limits?

The biggest mobile operator and the proprietor of Mpesa, Safaricom PLC, impose limitations on amounts you can transact on the faster payment method for security reasons.

It is not that Safaricom’s Mpesa wing lacks enough money to distribute to customers at any given time, but because it operates under the National Payment System Act, among other monetary handling laws by the Central Bank of Kenya, it must adhere to the set per-day limits of Ksh500,000 to help deter those seeking to abuse financial systems by laundering criminal proceeds and disguising it as legitimate income.

Also, Mpesa limits are a critical protective tool. Imagine someone accessed your Safaricom SIM Card and Mpesa PIN, then you had over a million shillings in your savings account, and Mpesa had no limits. The criminal could easily suck your accounts dry by tap pap, just the way you like it.

Further, transaction and account limits help CBK control the amount of money in circulation in the economy.

How much money can you withdraw from a Mpesa agent at one time?

With respect to the unchanged Mpesa transaction value, the amount of money you can withdraw instantaneously at a Mpesa agent or an outlet is Ksh150,000. But after the upward review of Mpesa’s holding balance from Ksh300,000 to Ksh500,000, you can repeatedly make Ksh150K transactions to attain the new limit.

Has the new Ksh500,000 Mpesa limit affected transaction costs?

No. Because you cannot withdraw Ksh500k at a Mpesa agent, Safaricom has not changed its tariffs or tuned its transaction bands to reflect the same. Mpesa customers will still use the current Mpesa Tariff 2023, the latest upon the enactment of the Finance Act.

Here are the newest Mpesa charges, the cost of sending, withdrawing, and paying bills with the mobile wallet;

How to Pay Your GOtv subscription in Kenya

GOtv, a popular pay television service, is among the main providers of home entertainment in the country with its tons of channels that air a variety of content from sports, news, children’s shows, latest fashion trends, music, and religious programs, among others.

Since its launch in Kenya in 2011, the MultiChoice and Canal+ Group-owned digital terrestrial television has been considered one of the cheapest players in the entertainment market, providing low-cost TV streaming, as compared to other direct broadcast satellite services and internet-based subscription Video-on-demand services like Showmax.

GOtv Kenya has different pricing tiers on each package plan which suits almost every budget. For instance, the cheapest GOtv plan – GOtv Lite – starts at Ksh199 per month, while the most expensive was the GOtv Supa package, whose monthly subscription is Ksh1,899. Check out the table below to discover the latest GOtv packages and their pricing:

GOtv packages and updated prices in Kenya (2023)

What are the GOtv packages in Kenya? How much does GOtv cost? Well, here are the packages alongside their monthly prices and number of channels:

GOtv package	Price per month	Channels

And after learning about GOtv packages in Kenya and knowing their respective prices, here is how to pay for it to watch the news, live sports, and other popular local and international TV shows.

GOtv offers convenient payment methods for seamless streaming. You may pay for GOtv subscription using MyGOtv App, credit cards, directly from banking apps from banks like Faulu, DTB, I&M, Co-op, CBA, and KCB, among others, and Mpesa, whereby using online banking entails a simple process of just clicking on the already integrated GOtv payment service, entering your IUC number, followed by the amount and PIN to complete the payment.

However, we are going to look at the most reliable methods to pay GOtv in Kenya: which is through Mpesa and Equity Bank’s USSD Service;

How do I pay for GOtv using Mpesa?

1. On your phone, go to the SIM toolkit and select Safaricom>Mpesa
2. On the Mpesa main menu, select choose ‘Lipa na Mpesa’
3. Then go to ‘Pay Bill’
4. Select ‘Enter business no.’ and put 423655 – the GOtv business number
5. Use your IUC number on a red sticker at the bottom of the GOtv decoder as the Account Number
6. Enter the full amount of the Gotv package you are subscribing for
7. Enter your Mpesa PIN to complete the payment

You will receive an SMS confirming the payment made for the GOtv subscription. Consecutively, Multichoice Kenya will message you with further transaction and package details pertaining to your GOtv account. Ensure your recorder is on when making payments.

How do I pay for GOtv using Equity Bank USSD?

1. Dial *247# from your SIM card used to register your Equity Bank Account
2. Select ‘Pay Bill’
3. Choose to enter the business number and type 423655
4. Enter your GOtv IUC number as the account number
5. Enter the amount of your desired package
6. Select the account to pay from
7. Enter your mobile banking PIN to complete the payment

In about a minute or so, you will receive a message confirming the payment made. Alternatively, Co-operative Bank customers can pay for their GOtv packages in Kenya by dialing *667#, selecting Payments, then Utility Payments, then Pay Tv, choosing GOtv, entering the IUC number and amount, followed by PIN to verify the transaction. For KCB Bank, paying for GOtv is possible through *522# and following the prompts.

What You’ll Pay as MTN Withdrawal Fees in Rwanda 2023

MTN Rwanda mobile money withdrawal charges

Coughing up a few francs here and there as a transaction charge when withdrawing money at MTN Rwanda outlets spread in the country is what many MoMo customers have made peace with, but I don’t know if you are one of them.

Since 1998, MTN Rwandacell PLC has been creating and delivering the best connectivity experiences for seamless communication in Rwanda while addressing the digital divide through various solutions like device financing that enables one to get a smartphone and pay in installments. Aside from the hassle-free mobile money services, such programs can be pinpointed as one of the main drivers of MTN’s accelerated success to have seven million customers as of 2023.

That is the new customer base after the largest telecom operator in Rwanda recorded a 6% year-over-year growth in the latest half-year financial report of the period ended June 30, which was released on August 3. MTN Rwandacell profits jumped by 14.7% to Rwf120.5 billion, 22.9% of it coming from Mobile Money Rwanda Ltd (MMRL), which expanded by 35.7%.

As seen, MTN Rwanda made a whooping Rwf27.6 billion in the mobile money sector alone. These are monies collected from international remittances, charges on sending money, and withdrawals, among other services.

Today, we are learning about the withdrawal charges, the fees for moving funds out of your SIM card from an MTN Rwandacell agent. Check out the table below:

MTN Rwanda mobile money withdrawal charges 2023

These are the latest MTN Rwandacell withdrawal fees. Amounts within a transaction band are charged the fixed fee displayed in the ‘Withdrawal charges‘ column. Take a look;

How to See Saved Passwords on Your Android Phone

By

Justus Kiprono

-

August 12, 2023

To be human is to forget. And in an era where time is money and people have so many things to do, cases of forgetting passwords are not strange. Also, the advancement of technology allows passwords to be saved in password managers and automatically on the sites. Why remember something that you have saved? It is like using up a brain memory for free unless you are the type that accesses personal sites using other’s devices – which is a threat to your personal data.

Another reason most people forget passwords is when they opt for Google’s ‘Suggest Strong Password‘ option when signing up on most sites. This is good because of its complicated feature of generating a very strong password that cannot be easily cracked by cyber attackers who rely on weak entry points for data breaches. But who can recall all those symbols and characters, a characteristic of strong passwords?

There are some but not you; that is why in this guide, we look at how to access the passwords that you have saved on your Android phone. Android phones maintain a list of your saved passwords for you to access them whenever you need them, anytime.

Finding passwords on your mobile phone or tablet

This step-by-step guide applies to all gadgets running on the Android operating system. Follow these steps to get your saved passwords on your Android phone;

This step requires mobile data or Wi-Fi. There is no way of checking your saved passwords on your phone offline. Before you take on the procedures, ensure your phone or tablet is connected to the internet.

1. On your Android phone, click on the Gmail App to access your Google Account saved on your mobile
2. On the main Gmail interface, close to the internal search bar, click on the three lines (hamburger icon) to access the menu
3. Scroll down and choose ‘Settings’

4. Select your primary Google Account, then on the Account section, go to ‘Manage your Google Account’
5. Account control section will open. Swipe right, and between Data & privacy and People & sharing, select ‘Security’
6. Scroll below to ‘Your saved passwords’
7. Tap to open the ‘Password Manager’

8. Go to ‘Password Checkup’
9. View your passwords

Password Checkup allows you to see saved passwords on your Android phone. It also provides a report on whether your passwords are safe or compromised. Further, it lists all weak passwords. You can view and make the necessary changes to avoid possible hacking attempts.

You can also manage your saved passwords on Chrome for Android using the same steps.
