No matter what, never talk ill or undermine the people or institutions that built you even if you think you are bigger than them … I trained & employed many lawyers who are now VERY BIG (or so they think) … It’s why no matter what, I will always be in the corner of HE Moses Wetang’ula who gave me me opportunity when he didn’t know me & I didn’t know anyone!

No matter your current powerful position, the Universe will have the last word! Always remember where you came from!

PRESS STATEMENT

FINANCE BILL 2026 MUST BE REJECTED OR AMENDED TO SAVE KENYAN JOBS

Today, as Members of the National Assembly vote on the Finance Bill 2026, I raise a firm warning on behalf of Kenyan workers, young people, local manufacturers, phone assemblers, e-bike assemblers, boda boda riders, innovators and the creative economy.

This Bill should have been a jobs Bill. It should have been an industry Bill. It should have been a youth livelihoods Bill. It should have been a Bill to grow local manufacturing and protect Kenyan workers.

But as currently drafted, it is the opposite. It is a jobs destruction Bill. It is an industry-killing Bill. It is a Bill that punishes local assembly, rewards importation and threatens to render our youth jobless.

The most dangerous attack is on locally assembled phones and electric motorbikes. These sectors are already creating jobs, training technicians, supporting sales agents, expanding digital access, strengthening the creative economy, modernising boda boda transport, reducing fuel dependence and saving Kenya foreign exchange.

Yet the Finance Bill 2026 makes it cheaper to import finished products while making it more expensive for Kenyan companies to assemble locally. It gives comfort to importers of finished goods while exposing local assemblers to taxes on components, raw materials, spare parts and production inputs.

This raises a serious national question: **Why is the Government taxing local assembly companies heavily while empowering the importation of finished goods? Why should the cost of locally assembled phones rise by about 44%, while imported finished phones reduce by about 24%?

Let me be clear: we are not asking Parliament to punish importers by taxing thems heavily. Importers and traders are also Kenyans, and they too contribute to our economy.

What we are asking for is fairness. What is good for the goose must also be good for the gander. If the Government has zero-rated or exempted finished imported products, then the same treatment must apply to the components, raw materials, spare parts and production inputs used by local assemblers.

Why should a phone or e-bike assembled by Kenyan youth become more expensive than a finished product imported from outside Kenya?

If this Bill passes as it is, companies will close, assembly lines will go silent, investors will withdraw, factory jobs will be lost, sales agents will lose income, boda boda riders will face higher costs and Kenya’s dream of becoming a tech-manufacturing and e-mobility hub will be betrayed.

A country cannot import its way into industrialisation. A country cannot tax its factories to death and still claim to be creating jobs. A country cannot preach Buy Kenya, Build Kenya while taxing Kenyan assembly and rewarding finished imports.

I therefore call upon Members of the National Assembly to stand with Kenyans today. At the very minimum, amend the Finance Bill 2026 to protect undustries, jobs, bodaboda riders and our youth.

If these job-killing clauses cannot be removed, then the Bill must be rejected in its entirety.

As a Senator, I stand with the people. I stand with the worker. I stand with local manufacturers. I stand with the boda boda rider. I stand with young Kenyans trying to earn an honest living.

Members of Parliament must vote with the people.

Reject or radically amend the Finance Bill 2026. Save Kenyan jobs. Save local assembly. Save the economy.

Airport in Zimbabwe, let Chivayo renovate it first before coming to Kenya

[Yoko @Kibet_bull]

If we stopped the Adani deal then we can also stop Chivayo.

[Gitz  @Gitz__]

They want to spend KSh 375 BILLION expanding JKIA.

That's enough money to build an entire new international airport from scratch.

For context: China built the massive Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport for just KSh 285 Billion.

This is your money. Demand better.
