Can Kenyans Afford to Reject The Finance Bill 2026? with Prof. Vincent Ongore

Are Kenyans justified in their rage over the Finance Bill? Absolutely. But can the country actually afford to reject it? In this hard-hitting episode of PolitiKali Konekted, we sit down with Prof. Vincent Ongore, a heavyweight in public finance and tax administration with over three decades of experience (including senior leadership at the Kenya Revenue Authority). Prof. Ongore pulls no punches: while he fiercely agrees that the government has failed miserably in communicating fiscal policies to its citizens, he drops a sobering truth bomb—Kenyans are simply not in a position to shoot down another Finance Bill without triggering economic catastrophe. In this episode, we unpack: * The Communication Failure: Why the state’s inability to explain where tax money goes is driving public outrage. * The Economic Catch-22: The dangerous fiscal reality Kenya faces if the bill is rejected. * Taxation vs. Representation: How the government can rebuild trust with a frustrated public.
