The beneficiaries of the Inua Jamii Cash Transfer programme in Murang'a County have started receiving their monthly stipend through mobile money services.
The County Director for Social Services, Ms.
Lucy Gakere, has confirmed that all the 73,774 beneficiaries of the programme received their stipend for the month of November through Mpesa services.
This, she noted, was realised after a successful piloting of the payment of the Inua Jamii stipend through mobile phone services, which was done in the counties of Murang'a and Marsabit from November last year. "During payments for the month of November, a beneficiary was just required to visit an Mpesa agent and produce his or her personal details, and the agent could withdraw the cash from the E-Citizen platform and hand it over to the beneficiary," Ms.
