The government has allocated Sh5 billion to the Financial Inclusion Fund popularly known as the Hustler Fund over the 2024-25 financial year even as Kenyans struggle to access funds from the kitty.

This is in addition to the over Sh25 billion that the Kenya Kwanza administration has allocated to the Fund since its inception.
