Despite the lack of clear, consistent information on Huduma Namba registration, people continue to spend hours waiting in line to participate in the process. Kenyans are a compliant people - some might say docile - when it comes to following government announcements. Perhaps it is the fear of exclusion – a remnant of colonialism – that guides participation in the process rather than enthusiasm for a national project that few have any genuine confidence in.
