Amazing insights from Mr Walubengo However, my question relates to the tokenisation concept, does it solve the mischief of ownership where low income earners actually own their own homes and are relieved from paying rent, to perhaps re-focus their income on other economic activities? In essence, as per my understanding, the people who can buy the fractions of the units will be the actual owners and just renting it out to the low income earners, further perpetuating the living on a monthly by rent basis. Because it seems that the only difference will be that instead of dealing with one landlord, they will be dealing with a litany of "shareholder-landlords". What is the impact of that on the mental security of the people who rent the apartments? I understand that you are speaking to a particular audience, just wondering whether that particular conversation will affect the wider conversation and the mischief behind the projects.

Dear Listers

The affordable housing project in Kenya, started by the previous Uhuru administration and accelerated by the current President Ruto’s administration, is a good initiative to fix the broken housing market.

However, there is a trust deficit between citizens and government administrations.

Mr John Walubengo says to solve that: "Blockchain technology can help by tokenizing housing assets, making them widely available for purchase and allowing investors to own a fraction of the house. This unlocks new funding streams and increases transparency."

Do you agree? https://www.kictanet.or.ke/kenyas-affordable-housing-great-idea-poor-executi...
