All Kenyans, salaried and non-salaried, to pay 1.5% of their income to Affordable Housing Fund


All Kenyans, both salaried and non-salaried, will be required to contribute 1.5% of their income towards the Affordable Housing Fund. This is among the key amendments to the Affordable Housing Bill 2023 which was passed by the National Assembly.

  1. Perfect plan affordable housing was to be done at the slums states and at rural areas for the poorest people but not that plan for president Ruto and his/her UDA mps… Ruto must understand not all Kenyans are stupid💯

  2. Ruto is unfair, adamant and arrogant! He does not respect and he does not protect the Kenyan constitution! He is dictating even to change the constitution the way he personally sees beneficial to himself and his friends! Our only consolation is that, only TWO/THREE more years, and Kenyans SHALL surely GET RID of HIM. Wakenya Amkeni! We have learned our big mistake!

  3. Majority of Kenyans told this regime in no uncertain terms, during public participation exercise, that housing for them wasn't a PRIORITY. I don't think being the president bestows powers on you to govern the country the same way you do your household. Whereby, what you want gets done and whatever you say also gets done irrespective of other household members opinions.

    As a public servant don't be HARD-HEADED, those who gave you the privilege (or better yet, hired you) to lead them have spoken on this issue with finality and without stuttering have told you to drop it. Unless you've gone rogue on them.

  4. Ruto & his kk mps/senators are out to make kenyan citizens to be beggars. This will make it easier to bribe voters by dishing out money to get what he wants. Let all Kenyans gang up come 2027 to send them home forever.

  5. I can't imagine paying 1.5% and after building the house I will still pay 21k per month and that was enough for him, he decided that we will pay for it for 58yrs😳

    Now kenyans they get to know the real meaning of bottom up… na bado utasikia mjinga akisema wetu ni wetu ata kama ni mwizi, you've right to talk but usionge mahali watu wamechoka na maisha pamoja na serekali…

  6. Legality does not come by promising to obey the law. You must demonstrate that. Promising to tax everyone is okay but the court needs to see its practicality. The court was not asking for a good law but a fair application

  7. Mbona mnatulazimisha nyumba na hakuna mtu amesema amekosa mahali pa kuishi….nyumba inafaa kuwa ya mtu kupenda kwake si kuforce achane kuongezea watu depression

  8. Ruto aachane na sisi,, I wish the money end up financing those so called houses but noo they end up in pples pockets,ata Hana management poa ya hizo pesa.. Hii kitu tuna boycott

  9. Kenya is not a communist state,the kenyan leader should be told!Secondly you don't grow an economy by taxing people heavily. Methinks Kenyan should never elect a person who has not done economics to be president. Kibaki and Trump have one thing in common. The Kenyan leader however knows much about insects . When Kenyans cry, his thoughts quickly shift to ants mentality and how colonies are built. Very unfortunate!
