#Kenya #Protests #WorldNews
Let all of these policemen be flown to Haiti so that Kenya can set up a fresh police service.
They would never welcome we’re Haytien not Kenyan.
Sure
Nan koko manmaw yap vini an!!
Kenya will rue the day Ruto thought it could invade Haiti on behalf of the US!
Haitian don’t want them - and they will meet their doom over there
Mr president you don't plan your house according to what you see in your neighbors house. you plan your house according to what you can comfortable afford.
Just wondering what he's mumbling about taxes. We are overburdened already. We can't continue watching as corruption and non accountability take a better part of us
@@annewanjiru818 exactly. Plus we're overspending and stealing/wasting! Billions to their and spouses offices for what?
Ruto is digging a huge hole for himself.
He's already in a whole
💯, we're tired!
I hope and pray that it's no so deep for him...... these people are not engaged they will demonstrate the whole time. RUTO is reaping the seed he sore of miscommunication of the previous govt he served and trashed. What goes around comes around. UHURU AND RAILA MUST BE OVER THE MOON
About time!
Lazima aingie
RUTO MUST GO!!!
He must GO!!! 2027's too far
Im in the US. Much respect to the citizens of Kenya. We are watching your fight. You are GOOD people. You deserve all you fight for. You are resilient. We wish you success.
But same issue pakisatni government ..people 😡😥
He just made a trip to the US, Stand up for your rights.
To make matters worse with an expensive private jet funded by taxpayers
Cut all the taxes....all politicians MUST use public transport....forget increasing the taxes......your too corrupt politicians.....of backdoor wheelie dealers...extravagant billionaire jet lifestyle..RUTO has had 64 international flights....Ruto better open his passport office inside THE COUNTRY OF SOMALIA....IN MOGADISHU....MOST SOMALIAS HAVE BOUGHT KENYAN PASSPORTS FROM THE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT OF KENYA...
How many kenyans live in Garrissa to warrant RUTO to open a PASSPORT OFFICE....in the region steal money with the...ONE KM... ONE VOTE.garissa VILLAGE??? .To require a KENYAN PASSPORT....the Somalia's in Nairobi better move to garissa to invest in garissa... if what he said is true..while DEMOLISHING HOMES OF THOUSANDS OF ELDERLY WOMEN AND FAMILIES IN MATHARE, KIBERA SLUMS..A.BREACH OF HUMAN RIGHTS...
ANOTHER LIE...somalia passport office in Garrissa is about DUALE maximising CORRUPTION by selling kenyans IDS to Somalians...from neighbouring countries to securing votes for RUTO in 2027....
RUTO STOP DISHING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS LIKE SWEETS TO CHILDREN...this is the Job for LOCAL VILLAGE Counties GOVERNMENTS Local leaders......unless its in EXCHANGE for FINANCE BILL.. VOTES....
@@jimg1056This man is a celeb not a president,we are overtaxed for his useless journeys ,silly one
He also opened a restaurant in New York City!
@@anobserver9658 I hope that's not true. If you don't want to invest in the country you govern then change the country, don't hedge your bets in another nation.
My heart cried when kenyans voted Ruto. L wanted to burst but my kenyan friend was very happy.l cooled down since am ugandans. I feared Ruto because he is a friend to museveni who is making us to suffer up to now ugandans are collecting energy to up root him
We Kenyans love Museveni, and Baba Museveni is not like Ruto. The grass is not greener. You guys don't have a puppet as a president unlike us.
Ruto must go!
ONLY WAY TO DO IT IS TO GET HIM OUT YOURSELF
LIBYA DID IT
DO IT YOURSELF
But with God every thing is possible
16% for bread ? That is absurd even by American standards
Its not about being tax but accountability.
It's both
16% tax on bread? Wow.
2.5% on cars (already purchased and paid for AND taxed at time of purchase).
Plus there is huge tax on fuel.
First time seeing Kenya on NBC. I've seen us on other US media houses, but not NBC
We have been there during the gas incident flooding and David sheldrick wildlife Trust
@@fabianjoy12875 Oh, OK
NBC has been too busy with Trump derangement syndrome.
Our problem is accountability....paying tax is good but some is ending in some people pockets
not some but almost all of it. spent on trip and luxury lifestyles for the politicians
Sure that's the biggest problem
What I have been saying for decades, It's the corporations that corrupt the government not the other way around, it ends up in corporate pockets 07-09 is good evidence of this.
Not some..70% of the tax is going to Ruto and his cronies
Congrats on kenya for fighting for their rights. Ruto works for the IMF
Foreign investors need to put pressure on the Kenyan Government to stop corruption and uphold human rights. There is no justice! Young people, university students are murdered every day and murderers are allowed to roam free because police and Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) have been bribed. Media should cover this issue. JUSTICE FOR BRIAN CHIRA!
“We can’t just be praying all our problems away” 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
These guys are really learned about everything, wow 😳😳😳😳😳
Here in the states, after tax your paycheck get tax again and again when you buy anything
That may be the case but at least you get some services in return. We don't get garbage collection, water supply is private and public education is woefully underfunded. Most of the tax money is just going to corruption
At least your government can account for tax.
The you send billions to Ukraine and israel
@kelvinmaina4357 they send our tax money to any pockets they want despite what the people want
@@victoraugustusonyango8463 you really think tax paying citizens in America don't get stiffed? You're out of touch
These broadcasts need to articulate and emphasise that the protesters have been entirely peaceful, absolutely no vandalism, theft or hooliganism. Simple legal gatherings to protest
We are doing away with this government
Most of those members of parliament will never see re election
Taxing basic food such as bread is really bad. That should never be taxed so heavily. 16% is a lot.
Zakayo shuka mti ama tukate.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂
😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Ruto is adevil he should resign nobody want him anymore
10+ Trillion Debt??
-No Job services, -No Government services, -No Medical services, -No Elderly services, -No School services, -No Road infrastructure, -No Urban Turmac roads, majority dirt roads, -No Sewer services, -No Water services, -No Electricity services.
Great to see Kenyans stand up. These crooked politicians are a problem globally!
These soldiers ,broke their oath! and are an embarrassment!
They forget that when they go home and take off their uniform they will also have to pay for increased prices on bread
The People determine how much they should be taxed, and they either permit more than they have determined.
I been to Kenya it’s massive country and gorgeous too, hopefully they can overcome these obstacles and became rich with everything they have
Our two biggest problems have been tribalism and corruption. The Gen Z protesters are the first of their kind not driven by tribal issues. Older politicians are still playing tribal politics especially in the mount Kenya region. Gen Z have shown us what we can achieve if we come together as Kenyans regardless of tribe.
Ugandans don't try this at home ohhhhhhhhhhhhh 🫵🏿😂😂😂😂
We shall
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
It's nice that the people are united. The penalty for doing this in Turkey is 7 years. The one-man regime will destroy the country and the parliamentary system will survive. Greetings from Turkey to my Kenyan brothers.
RUTO MUST GO
We need peace in this world 🌎
# GEN Z KENYA 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
MANY YOUTHS ARE GRADUATES AND JOBLESS WE'RE SUFFERING WE'RE GOING THROUGH DEPRESSION
🇰🇪 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH 🇰🇪 😊
Ruto is a brother to museven 😢
They are way below being taxed compared to who?
He is comparing us to developed country, were are still developing
@@User.25432comparing us to countries that can account for their taxes
Very good my brother and sisters we are with you ❤️
Zakayo must come down
Punitive Tax Regimes, without Financial accountability, transparency and discipline, amounts to economic injustice.

Spot on!
Ruto must go....uuuuffffffff😢😢😢😢
little ruto is now learning what is the consequences of putting nose in "Hayti" business😂😂😂... Hold on sovereign people, the first Black Empire to fight slavery and all forms of abuse is with you, we're one in this fight against imperialism
William Ruto your citizens are fed up with your corruption. We the people of HAÏTI don’t want you or your corrupt Police Department in HAÏTI? Stay away from the 1st Black independent Country!
I'm a Kenyan and our constitution doesn't allow Kenyan police to go for foreign missions.We as Kenyans disapproved it but since he is a US stooge, he didn't listen. Now we disapproved this 2024 finance bill since it's overtaxing us yet we never know where the already 2023 overtaxed bill and money went. Still he didn't listen and he always never listen. We are tired and we are determined no matter what, he must go.
We hate him here in Kenya, he's a known thief, and an executioner, a very heartless man... He stole elections, organised killings of kisii tribes and kikuyus tribes 2007, he has been looting left right and center since he was a member of parliament... He's just the reincarnation of evil ...
Kenyans, as your brother from Uganda, I want to inform you to be cautious of that man. He could end up becoming the Museveni of Kenya. Recently, he has been visiting Museveni frequently, and what he has learned from here is what we call Musevenism. This is a situation that a dictator Museveni uses to cling to power and keep people in poverty, making citizens beggars while bribing parliament members to stay in control. My Friends Kenyan kindly resist this dictatorship, which we, in Uganda call Musevenism, that he wants to impose on you with the influence of his mentor, Museveni.
Reply
Powerful to you people
Now imagine what its gonna be like in 2037 when social security runs out and our government raises our taxes even more than they already are... sad
What you don't understand is that we can allow taxation but if there is no accountability and transparency then we don't want it. The guy chartered a private jet to the US while telling Kenyans the country is broke. He was given millions of money during the US trip but not a single dollar has reached the people
Exactly my point
16% on bread is insane. No countries is that high
Ruto must go
He spent 1m dolla on flight😢
Zacheus is the biggest threat in our country Kenya
Power to the people!!!
The world there will be super rich and poor. The greed in this world is at the worst its ever been and getting worse
Watoke na bill zao tuanze kujenga Kenya upya kibaki haku overtax ndio alete free education,mwanzo hio pesa wanapewa ma lady ni za nini aki
Poor people😢
Sorry, Kenyan are not poor people the problem is the government, full of corruption, over taxing and etc
Ruto can't solve problems in his country but he was busy lecturing Russia about Ukraine
Ruto said Kenyan is under tax!!! He forgot that Kenyan are also under pay.
Cut on Expenditure......are the words
My president is talking nonsense…
Send these police officers to Haiti
The age of protests bereft of relevant political actions. 😅😅
2024-middle east,kenya...
Start taxing those members of parliament cut down on their salaries & lavish life styles we are under taxed & yet during kibaki reign he did a lot with that low tax you are talking about.
Start by being a leader for the people of Kenya who are in- directly your employer.
We need changes not dictatorship!
Why is he comparing their taxes to others. When someone can’t justify what they are doing they resort to well so and so is doing it!
corruption and wastage of public resources must end in this country
16% tax is wild
Mambo badoo!
The injustice done on the people of Kenya by Ruto & IMF is beyond words. Ruto out
Nigerians need to learn from Kenyan people. May the Almighty Allah helps us all. May He protect us from the oppression of our African Leaders.
Even these police if they can talk from deep of their hearts,,,they are tired also
Wewe tupee kazi acha ujinga ya under tax

DENVER (KDVR) - A woman is suing the U.S. Government and a Denver Mint police officer on allegations that the officer sexually assaulted her in 2022 at the Denver Mint.
According to the complaint, the woman was an independent contractor working at the Denver Mint in 2022. She was reportedly a registered nurse and provided health services.
President William Ruto loves Haiti more than Kenya!
Ruto, you are a liar and a hypocrite!
Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, but not the beam in yours?
Do not judge, lest you be judged.
With the judgment with which you judge, they will judge you, and with the measure with which you measure, they will measure you.
Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, and why do you not see the speck in your own?
Or how can you say to your brother:
Let me take a speck out of your eye, you who have a beam in yours?
Hypocrite, first take the speck out of your eye, and then you will see how to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
Insecurity in Kenya is much greater in Kenya than in Haiti.
Know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
Yet you can't wait to come to America? Lol😂 Here you can see where our taxes are going to.. Can you say the same thing for Kenya other than is going to feed the fat corruption. Hypocrisy amazes me. Most USA states tax less than Kenya, maybe that's why we don't complain.
Kenya is the giant of Africa
HE NEEDS TO RESIGN NOW!!
I hope the Kenyans "take care of" all of their politicians.
Ruto is taking Kenya down to another struggle for independence,yet we are free.mesanger of lies
Thursday onther day till ruto must go.

The west should question when is the money they gave him.The west should not force us with uneatable thing that can't be swallod.We are vomiting Ruto right now we don't want anymore
Can they make a deal and lower the tax to one billion.
Ushuru bila chechote kwa wanainch
Ruto is a devil
Aki just hear him, eti we are under taxed?? 😢
I am overseeing Military takeover very soon
Just a while ago they assassinated the general of the armed forces because they knew this was what could transpire.
Not in kenya
That's a wild guess, what military?
The bread one is definitely intentional to harm the lower class.
I'm a well off Kenyan. And I can understand, even if I don't agree with the government going after wealth. But a tax on bread. 16 percent. This doesn't affect the middle class and well off, but it will hurt the poor. I believe all tax hurts everybody, and I know some people believe wealth is derived from government even if I disagree. But a tax on bread is a tax on people struggling. It is nothing to those who are out of poverty but a burden on those still in it. If the Government wants money then clean up corruption first. Instead they target the private sector and citizens. Which will hurt the people. I think a lot of Kenyans would be less upset about taxation if they drove on flat roads without potholes or saw their social services being provided. Take care of the government first before you ask the people to sacrifice. Otherwise it's just more money for people in power to steal.
Lol if there is no bread eat cake 🎂. The way things are going if this govt things it can strong arm Kenyas then it will create an eat the rich type of situations, starting with those silly MPs who passed it. Just pure anarchy from now on.
Yes, they pay high taxes that does not help a single person other than you politicians. It is about time the youth does something. Make him a 1 term President
The president is right to increase the taxes for something that will have positive effect on the long run. Nevertheless, nobody likes taxes.

Money needed for M23 militia sponsorship. Kenyans should be told that M23 is losing ground and Kenya has severed diplomatic relations with DRC because Ruto believes it's the best way to secure economic and political influence over DRC so emergency source of funding is needed. DRC is now suspending all business with Kenya and has nothing to lose because there is a Friendly Tanzania and Burundi nearby who will now benefits from DRC importation of goods and mineral transit
It's not only with DRC. This ruto is busy trying to interfere in every conflict. The other day he was in Ukraine summit, he is busy pretending to care for Haiti and sending our police to be killed. He is also busy trying to start a war with houthis in Yemen. This clown is something else. He thinks he is the US..Oh wait he is their puppet
Ruto should take example from Burkinafaso president, so shame on cost of citizen they are living a luxury life
The World is Watching! Rights to picket peacefully!
We won't borrow or pray our troubles away✊🏿 Viva
Ruto is like Museveni the Ugandan dictator
I propose president ruto to withdraw this finance bill and give paybill of loans his government has borrowed we as kenyans if each one of us we contribut atlist 50/- we will offset this loans makes her to over budden us by over taxing us.just my take.i think this will save our country 😳
Let them cut down their expenditures indeed
This is what happens when you implement a system on white surpremacy...s/o Tariq Nasheed for opening my eyes to it.
CUT GOVERNMENT EXPENSES
I wish ugandans should behave like this.... But it's only kyangulanyi who tries
Imana ifashe aba nyakenya pe
You can’t further tax a broke economy
