‘The people have spoken’: Why did Kenya’s Ruto reject tax bill he pushed?

While there's still tension in Kenya following the violent protests over the tax bill, some analysts say there's little President Ruto can do to appease a new generation who accuse him of being a member of Kenya's old political guard.
Al Jazeera’s Charles Stratford reports.
Reginald Kadzutu, an associate lecturer at Oxford Brookes University and a financial economist, spoke to Al Jazeera about Ruto’s options.
He said the president’s options are “narrowing by the day”, with the protests damaging an image he has attempted to curate for himself over the years with frequent trips and photo ops.

A 15 year old was shot 8 times !!!! 8 times. There are over 250 deaths in Githurai, a location in Kenya. Most of which the police were doing an open fire shooting. They shoot anyone and anything that lives. There was a grocery lady who was hurriedly closing her shop to go home to safety, she wasn't even protesting and her and her son were shot dead. On Tuesday, people's brains were scattered all over parliament road. The gen z movement is a peaceful one, the only weapons we have are placards and a bottle of water but they shoot and kill. What I've pointed out is just a few injustices this monster has done. The list of innocent blood shed is so long yet all we initially wanted was for him to drop the finance bill. Now, we want him gone. God help Kenya ✊🏽

@@jonnyh9388 @ThibautDjemo some countries used or are using the loan to built infrastructure such as railway and roads - in the case of Nairobi to Mombasa, however the economic growth of many African countries is very low as well as per capital income, thereby making it very difficult for Africa to pay off such loans. I think what we should have asked ourselves as leaders and policy makers is: are these projects very necessary, and if so how can the loan be repaid such that it will not become burdensome to the people. Interestingly, Kenya compared to other sub Sharan countries are doing better as regards the use of loans. Again, it's high time for Africa to develop their own industries since we have most of the natural resources, so that we don't need to depend much on borrowing.
