Despite continued pledges by the government to address this issue, its end seems to be nowhere in sight.

However, here are some easy income-generating activities that can ease the situation.

1. Betting

Online gambling and betting is one of the easiest methods of generating income in not only Nakuru but the entire nation.

It does not require lots of capital, with some betting sites charging as low as 10 shillings.

However, involvement in this business does not have a guaranteed outcome as it is a 50-50 affair where anything can happen.

2. Shoe shining

This is another easy method that can guarantee you your daily bread, especially in Nakuru.

This too does not require a huge sum to start as one only needs a few shoe brushes and some tins of polish, unless you want to start the luxurious kind of shoe shining booths that are currently sprouting.

3. Bible and book binding

This too does not need heavy machinery and a university degree.

Some office glue, synthetic leather and a pair of scissors are enough to get you going.

Being a job including some accuracy, as some measurements and cuttings have to be done, its advisable to put in care to avoid material wastage.
