A recent TIFA survey reveals widespread economic hardship in Kenya, with most families experiencing falling incomes and limited job opportunities, significantly worsened by the Finance Bill.

• Nearly half of all Kenyan households report a total monthly income of less than KSh 20,000.
• The survey, conducted between August 23 and September 3, found that 70% of respondents feel their personal and family economic conditions have deteriorated since 2022.
• Just 25% of adults are in full-time jobs, leaving nearly one-in-four jobless, and the Finance Bill has directly affected 65% of Kenyans, primarily through increased costs of goods and services.
