Opposition leader Raila Odinga has reiterated the need to find a solution to the 16 per cent VAT on petroleum products.
Raila said the government should balance between protecting vulnerable Kenyans and raising revenue.
He spoke on Tuesday after a meet with former Gatanga MP Peter Kenneth at his Capitol Hill.
“The challenge now is to find ways of balancing between the two… A way out has to be found,” he said.
Noting that the increase will hurt employers, Raila said the government should find other means to raise funds.
