Azimio Coalition unanimously rejects the contentious Finance Bill 2024, requesting that its members who submitted amendments to the bill withdraw immediately.
Speaking to the press on Monday evening after a parliamentary group meeting, Minority leader Opiyo Wandayi stated that they made the decision to reject the Bill in its entirety after carefully reviewing the proposed law.
During the briefing, Opiyo also condemned the kidnappings of Generation Z members suspected of participating in the protests and demanded their immediate and unconditional release.
The protests, which began last week in response to a new round of taxes are expected to continue into the second week.
The largest protest has been planned for Tuesday when MPs are expected to vote on the Finance Bill, which sailed through the second reading on Thursday.

The Generation Z-led protests continued on the fourth day of the “Rage Programme,” with demonstrators from Nairobi staging peaceful demonstrations in the city.
The protestors vowed to maintain their resolve to push for the rejection of the Finance Bill and other changes in the country’s governance.
The demonstrations followed a blood drive and midnight protests in entertainment joints on Saturday night.
Soon after the church services concluded, youths who had worshipped at various churches in Nairobi and its environs gathered outside the Kenya National Archives.
