Kenya: Clashes In Nairobi As Thousands Protest Against Ruto Govt's Tax Hikes | Firstpost Africa
Protests are escalating in Kenya over proposed new tax hikes in the Finance Bill that is being tabled in the parliament. Thousands of young protesters marched near President William Ruto's residence. Protesters clashed with police who fired tear gas and water cannons to disperse them. At least one person has been reportedly killed, while over 200 are injured. Over 200 arrests have also been made in the last 24 hours. Young Kenyans in large numbers are protesting against the proposed tax hikes, which they fear will exacerbate Kenya's cost-of-living crisis. The bill is due to be debated and passed by June 30.

How many kenyans live in Garrissa to warrant RUTO to open a PASSPORT OFFICE....TAXES ARE STOLEN BY DENYING SERVICE TO PEOPLE ...and instead peddling FAKE DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS IN DESERTS TO ENRICH POLITICIANS...to date therebis no evidence of any development with all the funds in Arid regions....They steal money with the...ONE KM... ONE VOTE. Taxes funds allocation....to garissa VILLAGE??? .how many kenyans require a KENYAN PASSPORT in the DESERT????...the Somalia's in Nairobi better move to garissa to invest in garissa... if what RUTO said is true......RUTO...DEMOLISHED HOMES OF THOUSANDS OF ELDERLY WOMEN AND FAMILIES IN MATHARE, KIBERA SLUMS after the floods rendering thousands homeless and DESTITUTE...in the streets...A.BREACH OF HUMAN RIGHTS... ANOTHER LIE...somalia passport office in Garrissa is about DUALE maximising CORRUPTION by selling kenyans IDS to Somalians...from neighbouring countries to securing votes for RUTO in 2027....

It's burning down because Ruto is in panic and need to sponsor M23 rebels who are losing ground in DR Congo. Ruto believes Kenyan economic and political influence over DRC is guaranteed through war on Congo that has needed resources and very potential to be a global power. Ruto has severed diplomatic relations with DRC prior
