Jeremiah,
I personally feel the logical implementation of this project does not make sense. Why? Yes the systems work and are recording a lot of data.Big data will analyse patterns and everything analytics does(from this year onwards).Then what?
Nothing to cross reference and match with!!.(simply you have a bunch of faces that commit a crime then you take 3 to 4 months going through registration files at the ministry of interior(national registry) looking for the name and details attached to that face......this guys are basically stuck in active.
I think Ministry of interior should up their game -have a repository of (face,phone number,DNA,Finger prints)
1.Everybody with a phone number has a face---Use safaricom and get the face during registration. 2.Get all this data during 18+ registration 3.Get the updated details during the year of census.
Plus proper legal framework for that data -last time i checked cctv data is not admissible in kenyan courts.
Only then can we make sense of this!!
On another note,The Berlin wall was built in 1961,Great wall of China B.C---We are seriously building a wall in 2015.
NB:I am not negative,just realistic.
I heard gov. say they will have biometric register very soon. So they are on track still.... but recall some "pple" objected? Dig into archives... Kind Regards, Wilson./
