4:37 pm
experience 3 as experience. i mean like i haven't studied walking it. so how am i going to have that experience? and besides that, i think i can only gain the experience when i'm giving them an opportunity to walk . also, the good thing about it is next to you at 2 people who have been in this field for a long time. but i'm curious before i move on to them, what do you think it's going to be like? do you have a plan and do you think it's going to be an easy journey? i love cooking. i love, i love when i miss a thing i've done so it gives me that images the food we used before when you had done things, i love cooking and i've always wanted to have a research on my own. but then also i research and i need copy to, i've been also to have that copy too. that means i have to have something i'm doing in order to get the copy to. all right, so sandra, you've been in business for a couple of years now. i'm curious to know what your touch was like, was it easy? after my 1st degree? just like ha, i was looking for a job and i'd failed to find one. so i think of time i would want
4:38 pm
a skills and that was how to make so i say i'm making the soap during that night during the day i would look for plans to buy from me the someone to go to ricky who is a bit of a celebrity, what was it like for you at the start? i was in the board about the industry as a motorcycle taxi rider and grew from being more secretary, ready to being a guide and lost a friend in the border related accident and set it up as an advocate of road safety . well was just promoting m at wearing and that's how the idea was built to now what we know today safe border which has grown to become the number one right. elling up a motorcycle taxi in africa. i think i like them because they they get us in place in time, but then it's the safety issues, marin, you're in one of the businesses that it's quite scary for a lot of people into money lending. tell me about the watch thing that's happened
4:39 pm
to you in that business. that was jewish or that has have had been to me was when i came mean you have laid out menu to people and you are seeing less tuition that they're not working. they're not doing anything and then you have to recover your copy to back your one to the proof it. but you cannot receive it because i don't moment, there is no way you can. can someone i want my money when they are not working. that's ready. all right, the challenge is people, most policies look to buy young people. you find a policy like if you go to the bank, you have to collect your. i'm telling you about that you by about 25 percent. that's very expensive. and we've been sharing into our business, which you're starting, you know, ricky, i'm curious about the challenges you faced along the way. you will hear some of the stories one day or business that has been killed because of that vision and, and to, to, to, to be honest with you, we really believe that, that vision is great for this country. but we don't want technician to really be
4:40 pm
like a tool that can be used based in units and government to kill businesses. thank you very much, ricky sandra. i'm curious about, you know, listening to what tricky saying. does this also speak to the investment climate? do you think that our climate here encourages investments? the environment here does not favor investment. if you're going to go and menu your burden. that's about 85 percent. but if you go to many linda, you can get that money, a 10 percent, 15 percent per month at the very high. she says betty, present that you said just that's very high for investment because you see me, i must show up when you are to. i invest, we've mostly impulse looking at impact more. so when you give me this money, it's expensive. i'm a big mac returns that and then i may make 1000 may be up to i. yeah. so that's what makes the investment. you have very expensive, so we need more alternative very, i'm curious about, you know, one of the issues you raised was lack of capital. and then i know that they,
4:41 pm
a lot of government programs for young people. so the youth livelihood program and so on. these things you've thought about, have you tried and failed? is it just not working? what is it? i haven't really tried out, but then i've had it from friends, i've had friends say the government programs that help. but then also, i don't know how to approach these people. how do we approach them? what is needed? where do you start from? i'm going to really since phase about the things and we are in school about to leave school and stuff like that. ricky, you left when we mentioned be so when we spoke about government funding, you nothing. and i'm curious, had you tried this before? have you had stories? what is it about doing it? i'm actually laughing because i kind of see you as an agent or a promoter. you have what we call foreign investors. and the foreign investors, mostly from $22.00 countries, india to be specific. and china. these people have good, huge investment in your view here of stories here that an investor is going to build a hospital. and government is going to find the investor to build the ospital. and
4:42 pm
these are the things that really, really have to. and the reason this is happening is because they're able to really give money to a few other people will able to convince the government we want a government that we governance. we love our country. so my good, what about that? of young people, an employee and employee, they people making this uni that was 1520 percent of the total population of uganda . let's get real about this issue that when you think about in inclusion for the people. and i think one of the key things that i hear you sort of hinted is the people who are making decisions use as you should actually be. you know, the people are making this for as the know as one of the things constantly here is capital to start a business. it's one of the things that story mentioned and i'm curious to, to the ladies and decide what are your solutions to tori's problem. so start from where you start to what you have 80 percent is behavior. you have to lock the display and you have to keep on improving us all. i say that in a book every,
4:43 pm
every month i read a book, i listen to different people speaking, mentoring me. i had to learn how to play people. i had to learn how to hire. i had to learn how to fire. so i so much believe for most businesses, that's the most the key. so we have solutions, but we also have challenges and i think it's up to everybody out there to, you know, pick whether they're going to take them up and utilize them. but i think they've been really good solutions from people who have started from nothing to get to where they all. so that's it for the 77 percent here in comp, a lot. thank you for joining us. and that's it. the thanks a lot to everyone involved in this debate, and you can check out a longer version of the rebate on youtube. well, making a korea some time comes with the wish to go abroad. and this is exactly what finger karen from kenya did. but when she was in the united states,
4:44 pm
she realized that the best place to make it is actually her hometown nairobi. so she is back on the continent. my name is ken and some people when i say cartoon, i will musician i thing i produce i phone right. play some instruments here and i just got back from berkeley college of music. couple years ago, i was in boston, and i decided to come back and give me a little has been a part of my life. so apparently since the age of 4, i've known that i wanted to be a singer. and so i just pursued things that would keep me in line with that taking music lessons performing and every chance i got in school wasn't hearing to make
4:45 pm
the performance track for the dance team in school. i just always found myself doing something musical. i when i heard that 3 and 5 kids wants to leave the country. i'm not surprised. like conversations that i have with my friends. everybody is like, yeah, but you can't do it in kenya. so you know, i'm working to get out of here. but even me, that's awesome. i, i work with without the cannon limitations in mind. and so i hope to travel. and so when i did get to leave the country for the 1st time, i've never been to the states, i'd never lived abroad. that was with cool, but i was somewhat disappointed. i feel one of those you that really wants to leave the country. i would say do it like go, travel, go see the world go acquire as much information as you can. and so leaving isn't
4:46 pm
always a bad thing, is this like, don't leave and then don't come back to me. we still need young great minds. and my purpose is to break boundaries using music. and i think that's something that we did back income and something we didn't really set out to do. we just did it naturally. and that was all of our purposes at the time. and i feel like i just have to continue doing what i do just to show others that it's possible be just making pop music, making alternative music, being a female and africa and making music that can trans boundaries trans on borders. yeah, i think there's a lot of doubt self doubt in kenya, and a lot of suppressed artistic expression. and so i feel like i just need to pop up bubble and just allow the people to use it's not that we don't have talent,
4:47 pm
it's just that challenge. people don't see that there are, can be useful. i'm already super passionate about the artist. and i mean, i got into this industry by being supported by the article i had people like octopus who would give me advice. 0 is the have my back blinky bill. i was, i have my back with the drama queen and they still do so mentors and mentoring people. yeah. was that this before i've opened my mind up so much. i've met so many different kinds of people and then it just makes me realize that we actually have a lot here in kenya. and people are really talented. people are really cool. people are stylish, we have a lot to offer. and so to see, not just the position of like being in the states, everyone talks about the states as much opportunity. and i really think that the opportunities are in africa. i know the so much possibility and our perspective
4:48 pm
hasn't really been considered. we haven't really explored what we can do you just love what karen said about the fact that there are lots of opportunities in africa. i mean these days it's common to see women in managerial positions or working in sectors, but used to be male dominated. for example, i t or engineering, but what we often don't hear about is how many women are being for us to have sex with men in power. in order for them to get a job. we asked women in lagos, nigeria, how common it is for men to ask for sexual act during job interviews with it. common thing for the female i had of a story. okay,
4:49 pm
find somebody so close to me. you know, she went for a job scene and she got to the place, the man told her that's befall e can give her the job. she asked to do some stuff. things you know like, gets a bed with team level of level of law. and she would be, each has been laid up. that's the way the man does for all the female stuff. walk in with him there, the money journal, whereby that system positional to employ them. we say you want to go out to them before the car secure the job. so it really happens in this country that we use. you must get songs in. people do see a few more get something you use, what you have to get what you want. so is for like those people in charge, they want to ask you to sleep with them one or 2 days before they can find the job
4:50 pm
. and you that's really need the job, you have to do or the exit to do. those testimonies are just shocking. and the sad fact is that this is not just happening in nigeria. on facebook. we asked you whether it is common for women in your region to be coerced into having sex for jobs. and here's what you wrote spar our truth be not says in the movie, it's a culture. thomas one man says here in uganda it's even worse. and honestly it's the only option for dear sisters. and finally, golf club says it's a hippie full situation. in cameroon, it's everywhere from churches to schools and even companies.
