honestly poverty has reached an all time high if fellow unemployed kenyans are conning others with cheap less than 100o bob ads in dailys and sim cards worth 10 bob which you can easily dispose off to scam at a large scale. my heart goes to all of you in these desperate times..iv also been a job seeker for a whole year before God pulled me out of kenya to try greener pastures elsewhere
