Kenya Plans Tax Relief for Earners Below $233, Says Minister The forthcoming reduction in taxes, which aims to increase disposable income and stimulate economic demand, follows discussions with President William Ruto, according to Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi."How can the government continue to demand taxes on people earning Ksh30,000 and yet these people are required to pay their rent, transport, and other family expenses? You find that people are left with nothing," Mbadi stated. The proposal comes as the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) intensifies efforts to broaden the tax base. KRA recently suspended the filing of nil returns until March to audit records and integrate more citizens into the tax system. Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
