Kenya's government plans to sell at least 1,000 datasets from platforms like eCitizen over five years to raise revenue.
The Sh396 million project will include anonymised datasets such as:
— Land transactions
— Passport applications
— Vehicle registrations
— Birth and death records
— Business registrations
KRA now warns that if you don’t file your tax return by June 30, it will file for you using its own data.
If the figures are wrong, you will have to explain and correct them.
Kenya plans to sell anonymised, non-personal data from platforms like eCitizen to businesses, researchers, and NGOs.
The plan aims to raise revenue and improve government planning.

🚨 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟: FIFA have confirmed a number of new rules for the 2026 World Cup. ✅
▪️ VAR can now intervene for wrongly issued second yellow cards, mistaken identity incidents and situations where the wrong player is shown a yellow or red card.
▪️ VAR will also be able to overturn incorrectly awarded corners if the review can be completed immediately without delaying the restart.
▪️ Any player who deliberately covers their mouth during a confrontation will be shown a red card.
▪️ Players treated on the pitch must remain off the field for one minute before returning, with exceptions for goalkeepers, head injuries, concussions, fouls resulting in a booking and penalty takers.
▪️ Substituted players will have 10 seconds to leave the pitch. If they exceed that limit, their replacement must wait until the next stoppage and at least one minute of play has passed.
▪️ A five-second countdown will be introduced for players delaying restarts. Failure to restart play in time will result in possession being awarded to the opposition. If it occurs during a goal kick, the opposing team will be awarded a corner.
▪️ Yellow cards will be wiped after the group stage and again after the quarter-finals to reduce suspensions from accumulated bookings.
▪️ A mandatory three-minute cooling break will take place in each half. 🌎🏆
