Protests Driven by Younger People Aim to Push Kenya to Scrap Tax Rises
·1 min
Hundreds of people in Kenya gathered for a protest led by young individuals in an attempt to convince the government to scrap a finance bill, which many believe would place a burden on the struggling population. The bill has sparked widespread debate and unrest across the country. In response to previous protests against tax increases, one person was killed and 200 others were injured. Prior to the demonstration, several activists critical of the bill were reportedly abducted. The bill is expected to be debated and voted upon in Parliament.
