In a bold declaration amidst ongoing protests against the Finance Bill 2024, Hussein Mohammed, identified with the vehicle KCU 819H, and known by the moniker "Madam President," has unequivocally rejected calls for dialogue from President William Ruto. In a terse statement circulated widely on social media, Mohammed asserted the protesters' stance, emphasizing their singular demand: the complete abolition of the contentious finance legislation.
"Who does William Ruto want to engage? We don't have a leader! And we don't want dialogue, just scrap off the punitive finance bill.. Period!" the statement read, accompanied by hashtags urging widespread awareness and support.
The statement reflects growing frustration among demonstrators who view the Finance Bill as burdensome and detrimental to the economic welfare of ordinary Kenyans. The legislation, which has sparked nationwide demonstrations, is criticized for its perceived impact on cost of living and economic disparities.
Hussein Mohammed's assertion underscores a prevailing sentiment among protesters who believe that dialogue without concrete action to revoke the Finance Bill would be insufficient. The hashtag campaign, including #REJECTFİNANCEBİLL2024, #RejectFinanceBill, and #LetterToRiggyG, continues to gain traction on social media platforms, amplifying the call for legislative reform.
President William Ruto's recent attempts to address public concerns and encourage dialogue were met with skepticism and rejection by protesters, who insist on direct action from the government to alleviate financial hardships faced by Kenyans.
As tensions persist and demonstrations escalate across the country, the government faces mounting pressure to respond decisively to the demands of the protesting masses while ensuring public safety and stability.
