Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka accused the Kenya Kwanza government of reckless debt management and covert attempts to privatize national assets, citing the country's escalating public debt. Concurrently, the National Assembly has initiated public participation for the government's plan to sell a 15% stake in Safaricom PLC, a move projected to raise Sh244.5 billion. This proposal is facing significant backlash over potential undervaluation and lack of transparency. In a related financial matter, the National Treasury has invited Kenyans to submit tax policy proposals for the 2026/2027 budget and Finance Bill 2026. This initiative aims to enhance public participation following protests over a previous finance bill in 2024.
