@John, don't focus too much on KRA, whilst they may have the big bucks, there are also some small bucks in the hands of the common mwananchi. If your app is any good and its in the app store, you could explore in-app-ads, I assume they must exist in some form or another in the Android world.
Or, you could offer it 100% for free, then cleverly market yourself through it, and in the process, get your name "known" :-) This can reap you nice benefits in the future.
Also remember, there are some highly influential people on this list, peeps who either controls big bucks, or have substantial influence in some sectors or know people who know people, and the fact they are here and you are here and they probably know of your capability, is worth quite a bit in itself

shucks...
I recently made this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.krapinverifier
.. and i'd hoped KRA would be interested in it.
From your links, it looks like they'll take my app, pen a tender out of it, and grant it to some MP ... being an under-grad, I'd imagine I'll be a sitting duck when it gets to the courts
I guess I'll just put some ads on the app and skim some revenue off the app that way

I am behind the curve on news but I believe that there is a pertinent issue in court that may change the fortunes of the software industry in Kenya:
