He said that other countries were doing it through a process known as Quantitative Easing to cushion.
To mitigate economy recession/depression by COVID-19,following countries are injecting to their economies: US: us$2Trillion (9% of GDP) UK: us$434B (16% of GDP) Peru: us$26.4B (12.5% of GDP) Above money is from printing excess money, sexily called Quantitative Easing. Kenya prints us$7.5b (about Kshs. 750B) & give every County equivalent to 50% of its annual budget to be used to pay ALL BILLS even those with disputes (EACC/DCI to follow those cheating/stealing). And Central Gov’t to use balance to pay all other Bills. Economy will survive.

Ndii then responded to Donald Kiprori’s tweet with a detailed explanation of why his idea was not the best.
In a detailed response, he used fictional names, Kiplombe and Cheplongei to explain that money printing was not the same as quantitative easing.
Here is the detailed response that David Ndii wrote.
