Kenya: Uwezo Fund recipients have been urged to use their loans prudently and for the intended purpose in order to lift their socio-economic status and create more jobs.
Uwezo Fund Oversight Board Secretariat’s acting Chief Executive Officer Wilfred Buyema also cautioned the fund’s recipients against misusing the cash on luxuries or engaging in other uneconomic ventures which may lead to failing to repay their loans.
