Firing Health PS Mburu raises more questions than answers- Raila Odinga

At the same time, Odinga threatened to mobilize Kenyans on a march to the streets if the Finance Bill 2023 is passed in Parliament.

He said the bill proposes to unfairly punish and diminish the middle class who are already suffering blows and can least afford to pay more taxes.

"We make it clear that if this Bill is railroaded through Parliament, we will have no option but to mobilize citizens around the country to fight for themselves. We will mobilize all the social sectors and take all the necessary political actions to stop this blow and burden," he said.

"We continue to demand a major surgery to the Finance Bill in the interest of the suffering people of Kenya. Instead of merely levying more taxes on Kenyans, Kenya Kwanza must address the economy's many structural shortcomings. For instance, there is a reason why the Kenya Revenue Authority is unable to meet its revenue targets. Kenya Kwanza must figure out and address the problem."

His sentiments come on the back of continued talks between the Government and the Opposition.
