We know the Ruto regime is broke, that one is no longer a debate, because every new policy now looks like Treasury searching under mattresses for money.

We know that even if they are handed Sh1 trillion from SACCOs, the same tender games will start, costs will balloon, projects will be revised, brokers will appear, and politically connected tender boys will become richer overnight.

They are telling SACCO members that their money will go into infrastructure, but nobody is explaining when those roads, airports or projects will zaa matunda and return real money to the teacher, nurse, farmer, trader or boda rider whose savings were touched.

Kenyans have already seen this movie, where a project starts with clean English, moves into inflated contracts, disappears into tender corridors, then returns years later as a scandal that nobody is punished for.

Why are we pretending this is development financing when everybody can smell the scam from the gate, especially after the same government borrowed everywhere, taxed everything, sold assets and still came back for private savings.

Call it what it is.

This is a scam in an infrastructure helmet.

The @Cofek_Kenya has moved to the High Court in Milimani challenging several provisions of the Finance Bill, 2026 and seeking conservatory orders to stop their enactment and implementation pending determination of the petition. The argument is that Parliament is in the advanced stages of passing tax measures that will restructure how Kenyans are taxed on everyday transactions without adequate safeguards for consumer protection, privacy, public participation and fair administrative action as required by the Constitution. COFEK warns that once the impugned provisions are passed and brought into force, the resulting constitutional injury to taxpayers and consumers may be immediate and difficult to reverse.

COFEK specifically challenges new tax burdens on digital payments, scrap metal transactions and virtual assets as well as the proposed removal of a number of VAT exemptions and zero-rated supplies. For digital payments, the federation argues that expanding the tax and fee net around payment processing systems, card schemes and other financial infrastructure will raise operating costs for banks, fintechs and payment service providers which are costs that will inevitably be passed on to ordinary Kenyans through higher transaction charges and merchant fees. On scrap metal, the petition highlights the proposed 1.5% withholding tax on gross proceeds, warning that taxing turnover rather than actual income will disproportionately hurt low‑income youth, waste pickers and small dealers whose margins are already extremely thin.

Equally significant is COFEK’s concern over the removal of VAT exemptions and zero‑rating on essential goods and services such as basic foodstuffs, health products, agricultural inputs and educational materials. The petition argues that converting these supplies to the standard 16% VAT rate will inevitably push up production and distribution costs, with higher prices being borne by households already struggling with the cost of living. COFEK faults the Finance Bill for failing to provide any clear transition framework or targeted consumer protection measures to cushion Kenyans from the shock of these changes. The lobby therefore urges the Court to preserve the status quo through conservatory orders while it interrogates whether the impugned provisions meet constitutional standards of equitable taxation, transparency, meaningful public participation and respect for privacy and data protection in the emerging digital economy.

General Ogolla's death was not an accident,he was killed na watu WA NIS.. Robert Alai works for the NIS and this information he has shared ni ukweli.

The NIS told Kasongo that he had lost completely the people and people wanted him out...they predicted a massive protest which eventually happened two months after the death of Ogolla,Kasongo once accused Ogolla of trying to overturn the election outcome in 2022.

If Ogolla angekuwa bado CDF and Alive in June 2024,he would have been the president,Kasongo angekuwa Kamiti,ningekuwa namchunga huko...hata singekuwa na haja yakuenda protests... because GenZ wouldn't have been killed.

Finance Bill 2026 is asking for permission to kill local businesses.

Right now, if your company makes profits, you can choose to:

• Reinvest profits back to business
• Or distribute it as dividends to shareholders

Finance Bill 2026 wants that removed. And be replaced by one hard rule. That,

• At least 60% of your profits can be treated as dividends by KRA. Even if you did NOT distribute anything.

“At least” means minimum.

KRA can push it to: 70%, 80% even 90% if they don't like you.

Read that again.

Meaning:

• If you reinvest all your profits in your business, KRA will says:

- Noo. At least 60% must be distributed to shareholders. And since you didn’t, we will assume you did, and demand dividend tax from you.

As a result:
• You are taxed on money you never paid out
• 5%–15% withholding tax on “deemed” dividends

Who is in cooked?
• SMEs reinvesting profits to expand
• Manufacturing businesses expanding
• Real estate firms with paper profits but no cash

Who is safe?
• SEZ companies
• NIFC companies
• REITs
Because their dividends are already exempt.

But for everyone else, this is a forced dividend rule.

The govt is no longer waiting for you to run your business. They want KRA to run it for you.

Is this fair taxation? Or forced extraction?
