Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has accused opposition leaders of misleading Kenyans over claims that the Finance Bill 2026 seeks to impose taxes on leasehold and freehold land ownership.
Speaking in Murang’a County, Mudavadi dismissed the allegations as false and politically motivated, saying the bill is intended to strengthen the country’s economy and enhance fair revenue collection.
Mudavadi challenged politicians spreading the claims to identify specific clauses in the bill supporting the allegations. He warned against misleading young people, saying false narratives risk creating unnecessary tensions and divisions. He called for unity and urged leaders to work together in building and stabilizing the country.
