The CA is a gov't commission, essentially a creature of GoK. What's the purpose of Huduma namba while one still pays a facilitation fee of 1,050/= for numerous services in ecitizen only for them to collect the same data they did for the mass registration of huduma namba(fingerprints, photo and I even think an e signature was part of it too)?
