Bumula MP Jack Wamboka has criticized the escalating fuel prices, stating that they contradict the Kenya Kwanza administration's 'bottom-up' economic model and are negatively impacting Kenyans' livelihoods.

• The rising cost of fuel is driving up transport fares, food prices, and the cost of basic commodities, weakening confidence in the government's economic agenda.
• MP Jack Wamboka made these remarks during the distribution of Sh4 million worth of tents and chairs to 17 women's groups in Siboti Ward.
• The MP also urged leaders from the Western region to unite and support an alternative presidential candidate in the next general election, criticizing current regional leaders like Moses Wetang'ula and Musalia Mudavadi for lacking political direction.
