Cassava (Manihot esculenta, Crantz) is extensively cultivated throughout the tropics and subtropics regions due to its ability to grow in diverse soil conditions and minimal management (Wanapat, 2003; Wanapat et al. 2006; Wanapat & Khampa, 2007). The root is composed almost entirely of carbohydrate which can be used as important food source. However, it contains cyanogens (1- 3% CP) depending on cultivars (Stupak et al., 2006) and large amount of cyanogenic glucosides in the cassava flour (Cumbana et al., 2007) which could limit cassava root utilization for consumption and for livestock feeding. The laminarin and lotaustralin cassava's cyanogenic compounds are changed to hydrocyanic acid (HCN) by the action of the laminarase enzyme when roots are crushed or sliced (Wanapat et al., 1999; Cardoso et al., 2005).

The main telecoms operators in the country are all pitching in too – starting with Safaricom which uses the M-Pesa mobile application. In my book “Startup Lions, at the heart of African Tech” I explain how M-Pesa was born organically (and unexpectedly) from contact with the poorest Kenyan populations who didn’t even have bank accounts. A great many of them used ‘m-banking’ to gain financial independence which led to the M-Pesa service having over 22.6 million users in Kenya in 2019 – almost two-thirds of the adult population. A few hours after the president’s announcement, M-Pesa decided to drastically reduce its usage fees and to remove the daily transaction volume limit across the board in order to increase cash flow.
