President Ruto concedes, declines to sign Finance Bill 2024 into law amid widespread protests; orders austerity across government departments, including the Executive.

In a press conference on Wednesday, June 26, Ruto instead proposed austerity across government departments, including the Executive.

“Because I ran a government but I also lead people and the people have spoken, I am grateful to all members of the National Assembly who voted yesterday affirmatively for the Finance Bill 2024 as amended on the floor of the House,” he said.

“Listening keenly to the people of Kenya who have said loudly that they want nothing to do with this Finance Bill 2024, I concede, and therefore I will not sign the 2024 Finance Bill and it shall subsequently be withdrawn.”
