1.Whether its possible to second guys from AG to embassies to conduct weddings

3.Complaining about the bribes paid to get ID and passports
I was expecting these guys to ask "developed" questions considering that they come from developed countries Also really dissapointed. Unless something went on behind the scenes... Otherwise it was another one of those PR GIMMICKS that we have become accustomed to from Jubilee. How can you be disappointed and you have not stated your expectations. I thought that was the objective of the session, to meet and ask questions.

Use the money to invest on local entrepreneurs, most Kenyans in diaspora don't have the kind of money that would warrent a chat over golf. Golf kind of recruiting is for targeted investors i.e, you know so and so has ~x Billion Kshs and want to invest in X industry so you take them golfing as you show them why it's cool to invest in Kenya and not Uganda. To me this is PR gimmick!

How do quality of questions turn to disappointment with jubilee (pr gimmicks) - I thought that would have been due to the answers given, shouldn't the disappointment been towards the diaspora jamas.

To me this is PR gimmick! I thought they have the uwezo fund for the local young entrepreneurs. I think the diaspora guys contribute to the economy and for that sioni shida with them being recognized and avenues being created for the same to increase their contribution. Some of the diaspora guys had funny questions, but I am assuming much of the action happens away from the presidential question answer session, I thnk thats why Shem Ochuodho asked for a meeting with the president.

You are broke that's why you were no where near Windsor. Those who were in attendance were not of your caliber. Even S.Sudan ni diaspora "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

Ati they asked for Diaspora day,ministry of Diaspora and a piece of Uwezo funds. These guys have an inflated sense of their importance. Truth forever on the scaffold
Wrong forever on the throne
