The Holy Family Basilica and the Catholic
Church at large are calling on Kenyans to voice their concerns about the Finance
Bill 2024.
In a statement issued from the Basilica,
the church criticized the bill as oppressive and endorsed calls for its
rejection.
During Sunday's sermon, leaders of the anti-Finance Bill demonstrations led by Gen Z and millennials urged Kenyans to support the nationwide protest, announcing peaceful demonstrations from Nairobi’s General Post Office (GPO) to the Kenya National Archives starting at 3 p.m.
The church has termed the current state of
the bill as oppressive, calling on Kenyans to stand in solidarity.
