Miguna Miguna has urged President William Ruto and the Kenyan government to rescind the Finance Bill 2023 and put an end to the Housing Levy saga.
His statements came in light of the widespread backlash it has received from citizens due to its inopportune timing amid current economic downturns. The firebrand politician shared his recommendation through his social media accounts on Monday, clarifying that Kenyans have already expressed their outlook on the matter. The firebrand lawyer advised President Ruto to rethink his strategy instead of imposing it on Kenyans.
“Pull back. Listen to Kenyans. Withdraw the Finance Bill 2023. Postpone the implementation of the Housing Levy. Return to the Drawing Board,” Miguna said.
His advice came after ODM leader Raila Odinga warned Ruto of facing strong opposition should he impose the Bill on Kenyans. The Azimio leader castigated Ruto’s tax proposals, remarking it was not only “harsh” but also ill-timed since many Kenyans are already burdened with rising prices. Deputy President Ruto has been adamant in his support of the Bill, believing it will bring funds to revolutionize the economy.
“Kenya Kwanza have two options: face and listen to Kenyans, or ignore them and face a battle Kenyans never seen before in this country,” Raila said in a statement dated Friday, May 27.
However, Miguna has derailed Ruto’s stance, asserting that it won’t help the current issues. The author of ‘Peeling Back the Mask’ who is known for his candour, also advised Ruto to change his counsel and select truthful people who front policies based on Kenyans’ interests.
Why is president Ruto so…
Why is president Ruto so intent on committing political suicide? The people who voted him in are turning against him, Raila is gaining and cashing in, someone please talk to him. That housing scheme won’t work, anything run by the government never works because there’s too much incompetence, too much corruption and too much vested interest. Not in Kenya, it won’t work. Leave it to the private enterprise. I know, because I was in the “civil” service for 21 years.
How long did it take you to…
How long did it take you to obtain a new Kenyan passport when you were in Canada before coming back to Kenya? Couldn’t the same policy that was offered to you be applied equally to other Kenyans who have been waiting patiently for their papers to be processed for more than three years?

See what happens when…
See what happens when religion and politics are mixed! USA almost came to an abrupt end when Donald Trump mixed the two constructs together after the presidential election of 2020. Do you remember the events of January 06, 2021?
He (Donald) lost the election and has refused to accept that he lost the election. He has been campaigning relentlessly for the 2024 presidential election while he still believes that he won.

Rigathi and Samoei should be warned against mixing religion and politics in Kenya. There should not be any political meetings in any place of worship. After all, everybody in Kenya does not believe in the Roman/Jewish, and European based religion.
All taxes must be imposed…
All taxes must be imposed. No one will ever pay taxes if it were left at will. No tax has ever starved or killed anyone!
