But beyond the numbers lies a bigger concern: Are we spending on the right priorities? ⚠️ Mounting Debt, Shrinking Services The Okoa Uchumi Campaign warns that the new Finance Bill 2025 does not adequately address the reckless government spending habits. Instead of realigning resources toward crucial services, the bill appears to favor tax privileges for elite players while placing a heavier burden on ordinary Kenyans.
