Kenyans on twitter are calling upon each other to ensure that they get their area MPs contacts to call or text them and tell them to reject the 2018 Finance Bill.
The Bill the MPs had presented to President Uhuru Kenyatta was rejected and in turn the president proposed an 8% VAT tax on fuel which was forwarded back to National assembly with reservations.
They have been urged to do this before Thursday, a day scheduled for another MPs sitting who are going to either vote for or reject the Bill.
One of the Kenyans on twitter showed his screenshot of the message he had send to his area MP, thus encouraging others to do the same.
Kenyans, talk to your MPs, call them, text them, tweet them. Let them know your feelings about the Finance bill 2018. Even if they vote as tyrannized to, let them know your stand. Already did. @Nyamwanda @Railajunior @florence_mutua @EstherPassaris #BadLeadershipKe @jwnyikal pic.twitter.com/C3i0ULLBMg

however, Kenyans have been advised to stop hand outs culture for the betterment of the economy and corruption reduction.
Kenyans should first and foremost stop this culture of handouts, where do people think Ruto gets all the money he is giving away from? Look what happened to the Sugar report, MPs were given bribes to look the other way
