Kalonzo Musyoka threatens protests over Kenya finance bill 2024

Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has promised to mobilize street protests if the Kenya Kwanza administration attempts to reintroduce aspects of the Finance Bill 2024. Musyoka voiced his concerns about the proposed tax increases, asserting that they would disproportionately burden ordinary citizens while benefiting a small, affluent elite.

“We cannot remain silent while Kenyans suffer,” Musyoka declared. “If they try to bring back the Finance Bill, we will not remain quiet. This is a revolution.”

Musyoka made these statements after attending a church service in Umoja, Nairobi, and later led supporters to a gospel concert in Kimoroni Stadium, Murang’a County, where he continued his critique of the government. Joining him was DAP-K party leader Eugene Wamalwa, who echoed Musyoka’s commitment to defending the interests of Kenyans. “We are here with Kalonzo, and we are fighting to protect Kenyans, not just the wealthy few,” Wamalwa said.

In his remarks, Musyoka praised the youth-led protests earlier this year, particularly commending Gen Z activists for their role in advocating for economic justice. He assured them that their voices were being heard and that their actions contributed to a broader movement for fairness and equity in Kenya.

Additionally, Musyoka criticized a recent proposal by Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei to extend the presidential term limit, calling it “out of touch” with the needs of ordinary Kenyans. He argued that political reforms should focus on the public’s well-being rather than increasing privileges for elected officials. “Mr. Ruto, do not make the mistake of bringing that seven-year presidential term limit to us. Drop it like a hot potato if you love your country,” Musyoka urged.

Suggesting an alternative approach, Musyoka proposed shortening the presidential term from five years to four. “Kenyans are tired,” he said, advocating for reforms that prioritize their needs.
