Kenya: Protesters Force Ruto to Reverse Salary Hike For MPs & Govt Officers | Firstpost Africa
While anger against Kenyan President William Ruto persists, the protesters have forced him to make another U-turn. Now, President Ruto has decided to freeze salary hikes for members of the cabinet and the parliament. The Kenyan Presidency has ordered a review of salary increases for public servants. This comes as an apparent bid to defuse tensions. But the protesters are not ready to budge and want William Ruto to step down. Protests against the Ruto govt continue. Police say over 270 people, masquerading as protesters, went on a criminal rampage on Tuesday. Kenya's Interior Cabinet Secretary has vowed to end violence "at whatever cost".

Ruto needs to go. When he goes, remind him to take back all the criminals he sent to Haiti to provide his own security. He deserves a good Haitian "bwa kalé" for sending Kenya's criminal prisoners to Haiti. Please, investigate and report on it because the Kenyans are saying the people sent to Haiti are criminals from Kenya's jail. Haiti doesn't need these criminals.

The redundant office of the first lady is frivolous when that kind of diverted money should be cornered and reinvested without micromanaging the nation's limited income. This measure will automatically collectively build up the required cash for needed payment for bills due and providing the poor with basic necessities for purchase of food and rental payments etc.

@chegekaba5678 26 дней назад

In the first place , why should a First or second Lady get salary?? The husband is getting huge salary to take care of his wife and family. I never imagined this state of affairs. Maybe even their children get a salary hidden as an allowance of some sorts. And when they don’t get enough money in the country - they go borrow in foreign lands and it is loaned to our nation to be repaid by all of us? I also hate the CDF unfair economics. Surely, there is a lot of mess to be cleaned in this country! Ruto should be made to remain there and his MPs to clean the mess which has been created by this same House. I look at Gen Z as the “modern MauMau” freedom fighters! The future belongs to them. The adult men and women of integrity identified by the Gen zs could be given a chance to help these young heros construct their future nation!

Kenya doesn't need foreign loans/aids. Kenya is too rich blessed with natural resources GenZs tank you so much for stopping Zakayo from selling out entire Country to profit himself. He was making deals with IMF, World Bank & EuroBonds.

A Senator in Kenya earns more salary than the president of United States plus free car grant, free money to buy a house, huge benefits package Plus security 24/7. This is crazy in a country people cannot afford health care and kids cannot access good public school education.......

@samobbo1540 Месяц назад

The MPs don't deserve any salary . Being MP should be for retired professionals and we don't need more than Senate number. Someone has to pay back cash paid to unconstitutional offices ie first lady 2nd and wife of prime secretary and many others

@vubanjones6972 Месяц назад

I am from Cameroon. Dear Kenny's permit me use this platform to say.... All those who are calling on you to keep going on the streets are mis directing you. The president has a very great plan for your country. Two years in power is not enough time for any leader in the world to deliver anything to the country. Remember he took over with huge debts and he needed to do away with some of them before appropriately giving out whatever he promised you people with. Give the chance to finish his mandate then can we judge him using his own words. You are asking Ruto to go, who are you proposing to take over power? What is the person's agenda?, what is the person Manifesto all about? Do you think bringing in a new person now will change the narrative? Please do not get your peace loving and beautiful country to a shame. Your country is one of the best and the fastest growing African countries. Step a little and examine things again before deciding if you should go out on Tuesday or not.

Kenya doesn't have debts. Uhuru and Ruto were criminals who were supposed to be jailed in international criminal court at the Hague. The late president kibaki short changed the country by rigging them into presidency by help of western powers who are not comfortable with the four time winner of the last four elections 2007, 2013, 2017 and 2022 because of his strong policies for Africa. These guys borrowed left right without thinking and some of this money was stolen. Infact it's rumored that most of the loans never came to kenya. Kenyans deserve better than this. We must have an Audit of all these loans and question why lenders are giving loans to countries still struggling? Why can't we live within our means?it's either the world bank or IMF and Ruto lying to us. We need Audit of the loans urgently. Ruto never won elections no wonder he is unpopular. Baby sitting Africa is not helping. Africa can do better on its own. The late Mkufuli of Tanzania opened our eyes. Africa let us go.
