President Ruto: MPs who voted yes for the Finance Bill 2024 are true heroes of Kenya

[@mishimwinyi3]

If you knew we are on a financial crisis why do we allocate funds for renovation its like telling me I stop paying fees for my children but buy a sofa set

[@PaulineJanuaris]

Very true

[@lakeinrocks]

Exactly! Crisis but let me rent the most expensive jet and show the mzungus we have power??

[@collinsamani6964]

If you love kenya just step aside and let others try. You will be remembered as a hero by this act

[@estherkirigo8427]

[@joychoge5308]

Best Journalists of the year❤it’s good that they really addressed our concerns.

[@StephenNdumba-r6n]

All the president needs to do is to get rid of wastage of public resources, recover and prosecute looters of public coffers. Reasonably why would you seek to collect more when you cannot account for current audit queries.

[@mkenyammoja1]

This parliament has the most arrogant mps what angered kenyans is the way mps were talking back to the people who elected them.

[@georgeodhiambo598]

That arrogance of YES MPs had its roots in the State House meeting where the riot act was read out to them by none other than Ruto that if they failed to vote YES, then would face serious consequences. A good number of those MPs resisted Ruto's madness but fear and eventually greed got the better of them

[@musabakari8599]

​@georgeodhiambo598 exactly it is Ruto that's arrogant, inhuman and egocentric he thinks he alone knows what's good for 54 million people going forward I hope Kenyans have learnt a lesson not to elect people based on party affiliations but maturity and performance.

[@sirn1246]

This man is alier those Mps were forced by corrupt cartels because that was the most useless finance bill we have ever seen. Ours voted yes but 2027 he must go home with his corrupt heroesim.

[@tariqbamahriz8656]

But also all the other previous goverments were doing the same. He came to power at a time where the country has a lot of debt. Lets be fair!

[@amabdiyus111]

​​@@tariqbamahriz8656at least there were no new taxes every year

[@iradukundajimmy-thierry7930]

What will you do if you were Ruto

[@lakeinrocks]

​@tariqbamahriz8656 Fair about what? He is the straw that broke the camels back, and therefore, he gets to live the consequences of his actions. Some of us were young when others were stealing. We are of age now and we can see clearly and we refuse to continue living in fear..

[@Vhlathanosh]

@@iradukundajimmy-thierry7930 salary cuts for mps by about 50%, scrap their sitting allowances, entertainment, let them fuel their own cars, they also have enough money to afford own homes, etc. These people are living like kings in a country where people go to bed hungry. It's a greed problem. There's enough money to go around but their greed won't let them.

[@philomenawaithera1635]

But why do we have a lot of positions he created that are not constitutional?

[@SimonMwai-qn6nj]

Ruto reduce the salary of mps by 50% and give it to teachers and nurses..

[@kawsujawneh9063]

True. The same way, we need reducing of MPs salary’s in our country The Gambia 🇬🇲 People of the citizens are getting poorer, whiles President and his MPs are sky-rocketing richer 😊

[@don-b254]

Ruto hajawahi wacha story za jaba..he always go out to developed countries kuangalia vile wanafabya nakuleta kenya..forgeting that corruption is everywhere here😢

[@ousmannjie8530]

William Ruto is saying that he is smarter than all of the Kenyans. Countries like Bukina Faso, which are cutting the salaries of Bukinabays instead of borrowing from IMF. are improving with the support of the people. Refrain from connecting Kenya's economy with the coloninizers. Stick to African Unity. Finally, do you have to use force and then negotiate later. Be.vigilant, the struggle continues!

[@kenafriq]

just cut spending, cut salaries and pay off the debt

[@josephkavuthi2122]

You know Ruto thinks he is the only educated person in Kenya ,how can you claim you are pulling your country from debts when you are allocating a lot of money to your advicers and your wife ,DPS wife and mudavadis wife ,what for

[@nancywandettoh3556]

Mr President kindly fight corruption starting from you and Kenya will be the Best country in Africa.

[@FaithWafula-uf8fy]

Thanks journalism for that works

[@maryngaruiya8221]

So farmers and teachers are the only ones who will suffer the consequences for the rejection of the finance bill? Why not talk about we're gonna cut salaries of the MPS, the state house won't be renovated etc...Same ol' BS!!!

When those mp's flaunt their wealth , mishandle money ...., if they are true heroes let them sacrifice their salaries till the debt is paid . Then they can be heroes ....

As much as l feel for these people who lost their life in Kenya prosstat l think l understand this president to deliver what people whant you need money but if people don’t want to pay taxes where wit the money come from Guys l think you are asking tomuch from this president Remember he is in the office when he came In the office they were issues to tackle So you can’t expect Ruto to do magic and solve all problems of Kenya overnight We should support president like Ruto who is trying his best And come to you and discuss issues you should be grateful of Kenya and thank God to have a president like him in Africa Look country like Zimbabwe since independence people of Zimbabwe they have never known freedom they are running in numbers to search for jobs no government is listening to them instead they are busy enriching themselves with the state money Me l think Kenyans should support this young man instead of pushing him down like so.The fact is that in a country the main issue when young people don’t have jobs they risk their lives going to Europe or crossing borders even engaging into crime but the government is tackling that issue l think he should be given that credit remember this is Africa where by many countries can’t afford to create jobs for young people Why can’t we thank this guy and bless him Ok Now you are saying he should live the office which engel is going to take over and make a change overnight in the country Guys it doesn’t work like try to appreciate this current government to me he is the best in Africa

Poleni sana kwa maafa na msiba. Why does the media sound so biased. And by the way they interrupts Ruto constantly, just to drive a point . I actually checked that bill and I didn't see anything to do with land owners leasing, that was bs and fabricated. Right? The question is, is there a bigger picture behind the small picture? Like an entity that feeds on our debt that is mad that its plate might get smaller with time. I believe this one is pulling the strings attached. Expose those ticks. Also on educating citizens about national debt. I suggest a big screen to be raised where everyone can see the national debt clock in real-time asap.
