Head of state president William Ruto has named two most paid individuals who are currently earning more money than his salary.
Speaking at state house today, Ruto said that comedian Njugush and Eddie Butita are two young men who are earning more than what he ad president cannot afford through his salary.
Ruto said that the two gentlemen are great entrepreneurs who have monetized their YouTube channel and are making money and also acting as a motivation to the young people that one can get a job through YouTube.
Ruto added that, the content creators have agreed to help the government through paying taxes and that’s why Njugush and Eddie Butita were attending the function.
“Let me tell you we have young men who have monetized their YouTube channel and are earning money. And it took me so much long and to consult with them so that is how I reached at this decision of having them contribute and they agreed to help us. That is why we have these two young men here, Njugush and Eddie Butita. They are two young men who are earning more than my salary, because they have monetized their YouTube channel. I want to thank them for being mentors to the young generation that there are jobs online,” he said.
