Kenyans are being asked to pay more taxes through the Finance Bill 2026, yet the 2026/27 Budget hides KSh 101.37 billion under a vague item called “Other Operating Expenses.” No programme. No purpose. No accountability.
Before taxing Kenyans another shilling, Parliament must clean up the budget. We cannot finance opacity with taxpayers’ sweat.

Finance Bill 2026.
Out of 347 MPs, only 162 showed up to vote on one of the most consequential pieces of legislation affecting millions of Kenyans.
122 voted YES
40 voted NO
185 MPs were absent
If only 162 MPs can determine the future of the country's finances, then Kenyans have every right to ask:
Why are taxpayers funding 347 MPs when nearly half the House is missing during critical national decisions? 🇰🇪
