What did Moses Kuria, the Waziri of Trade, ever do to Kenyans? Bwana Kuria was subject of online debate over his remarks that the Hustler government allegedly wants to ban mitumba and, ostensibly, put hustlers out of work.

In Bunge, he was receiving a battering from Kamukunji mheshimiwa Yusuf Hassan, who represents many a mitumba trader. Yusuf thought the new waziri had read his job description wrong.

"The CS should look at his job description," he said on Thursday as he sought a statement on the alleged ban. "His job is to create employment, grow our industry."
