On June 22, he shared photos from a 'Journalism Out Loud!' conference in Germany, prompting accusations of hypocrisy from online critics who call him a 'Paycheck Commercial Activist' funded by foreign donors.

This expansion reaches informal workers too, aiding planning for maternal care, child health, and nationwide services. Supporters highlight how the wider database and steady funding promise better health outcomes for all.
