A new report by KHRC has sharply criticized the Hustler Fund, describing it as an economically disastrous initiative that has failed to deliver on its promises of financial empowerment for low-income Kenyans.

The report, “Failing the Hustlers,” concludes that the Hustler Fund is structurally unsound, economically unsustainable, and politically manipulated, and recommends that the government scrap it entirely.
