EPRA increases Road Maintenance Levy from Ksh 18 to Kshs 25."Bona Kipchumba Murkomen alisema hawataongeza"

 The EPRA has recently announced an increase in the Road Maintenance Levy from Ksh 18 to Kshs 25. This decision has sparked mixed reactions among Kenyans, with many expressing their concerns about the additional financial burden this will place on them. CS Kipchumba Murkomen had previously assured the public that no extra levy would be imposed on road maintenance, making this sudden change even more surprising for many citizens.

Kenyans have taken to various platforms to voice their dissatisfaction with the current Kenya Kwaza government, particularly criticizing Deputy President Ruto's leadership for what they perceive as excessive taxation. Many feel that the government should focus on finding more sustainable solutions to fund road maintenance without constantly increasing levies that ultimately affect the average citizen's wallet. The ongoing debate highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in government decisions, as well as the need for effective communication with the public to address concerns and build trust.
