Uhuru’s Sagana rally to Shape Mt Kenya Politics; New Twist as Kalonzo Rubbishes Reports of Meeting Raila & Ruto’s Plan To Beat Uhuru is Disclosed as Sagana Meeting Begins Tomorrow

Good morning,

A campaign dubbed #lowerfoodprices meant to force the administration to enact policies to cushion Kenyans against the high cost of living continued to trend on social media for the second day yesterday. The campaign began late on Sunday and it aims at raising the attention on the costly prices.

The campaign led to politicians trading barbs and engaging in blame games as most Kenyans are struggling to put food on the table.

ODM leader Raila Odinga accused Deputy President William Ruto and his Kenya Kwanza alliance team of being the root cause of the high living standards faced by Kenyans while the latter blamed the problem on his handshake with President Uhuru Kenyatta.

A statement by Amani National Congress party leader Musalia Mudavadi said CS Yatani exceeded the set debt ceiling without seeking new approval from parliament in total violation of the constitution and the Public Finance Management Act, 2012.

He further said that the CS should not sign any new loans including floating sovereign bonds during the transition period.

Cooking oil, sugar, maize flour and LPG gas are some of the commodities reported to have become more expensive in the recent months.

Do you think the leaders/politicians are going about the right way to cushion Kenyans against the high cost of living?
