The bill is scheduled for the second reading in Parliament on Thursday, June 8, 2023.
During a press conference held in Nairobi on Thursday, Odinga called on President Ruto to stop burdening Kenyans with additional taxes and, instead, focus on adopting a more friendly approach to alleviate the financial pressure on them.
