Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has asked critics of the Finance Bill 2023 to give the government alternative ways to raise revenue in the next financial year.<\/p>\n

Mudavadi said the situation in which the country is in calls for tough decisions, some of which will be painful in the short term but beneficial in the long run.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not just criticise and oppose what the government is proposing yet you are not giving us an alternative on how we will get solutions to fill the existing gaps. For those opposing, we are asking them what is the alternative pre-position?\u201d he posed.<\/p>\n

He made the remarks at the Bomas of Kenya when he addressed members of the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is clear where we are as a country. But the truth of the matter remains that we have been elected and we cannot continue crying, we need to now start finding solutions. The solutions must be local and we need to work towards the improvement of our society,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He urged members of the chamber to support the government in changing the current debate on the Finance Bill 2023, saying the government means well to the citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to change this debate about the Finance Bill 2023. There is no country globally that can sustain itself without taxes. No government has any resources other than those it gets through taxation,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

He asked members of the chamber to give Kenyans the true picture of what is intended.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth of the matter is that the pain we are feeling as a nation is because fewer people have been paying taxes and the tax-man has been repeatedly coming back to the same people again,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He also defended the proposed house levy saying the idea has been misconceived and politicised to make Kenyans feel like the Government is imposing a burden on them.<\/p>\n

He said leaders rallying Kenyans to reject the proposal are being mischievous and selfish.<\/p>\n
