Just the other day, the Central Bank of Kenya released a strange but true statistic. The indication was that only 0.7% of Kenyan bank accounts have deposits of more than 1 Million shillings. That means most Kenyans could use some money right now. Isn't it now clear that Kenyan millionaires are as rare as hen's teeth?
