Tax hike proposal, cost-of-living crisis ignite protests across Kenya | Al Jazeera Newsfeed


Police and ‘Occupy Parliament’ demonstrators confronted each other in Nairobi as anger spread across Kenya over proposed tax hikes amidst a cost-of-living crisis. President Ruto has scaled back some of the proposed changes in Finance Bill 2024 but says other increases must go forward.

  1. Mr President Ruto we African Youth were expecting you to handle the Situation amicably since these are Kenyan citizens expressing themselves to you. It’s very simple Mr President; give up your right to be RIGHT and listen to the people whom you are serving. I thought you are there for them and because of them .just remember you decided to become Kenyan President in order to improve their lives because you LOVE them I believe. Now shedding innocent blood like that, does that make happy ?

    Remember, apart from being a President you are a Father, now what if that happens to your children Sir? Would you be happy?
    Don’t you love Kenyan citizens as your own children?
    Now you command your own children to be killed?
    Is this how you make Africa safer? Easier and prosperous?

    Is that the BEST you can DO?
    Whom are you saving ,appease or favoring by killing your own children Mr President?

    How do you look now in the eyes of Fathers and Mothers that are mourning their children killed like that Sir? Or you don’t CARE?
    What legacy is this behind your name Mr President?

    Their blood is crying against you before God Sir or you don’t care either?

    We’re very disappointed!

  2. Corruption everywhere. Am a Kenyan but I have to apply visa for my 5 kids who are all under 18yrs.. five years ago i didnt pay visa for same kids. Ruth is stealing from us while he wastes our Taxes making useless USA trips.. Useless Preso in kenya history

  3. Ruto has to go people and lets occupy state house on Thursday its on… he's calling the Kenyan people terrorist for fighting for their rights i can't acknowledge him as a Leader to the people of Kenya

  4. Corrupt satelite states… the people must take their nations back from European-Backed puppet leaders, who keep the people in ruins, so that they can only send raw resources to Europe for pennies.
