National Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi has come to the defense of the Finance Bill 2026 amid mounting criticism from opposition leaders and segments of the public regarding the proposed tax measures outlined in the legislation.<\/kbd><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a public address, Mbadi rejected accusations that the government plans to impose taxes on freehold and leasehold land, accusing certain political figures of spreading misinformation about the Bill. He challenged critics to pinpoint specific clauses in the proposed legislation that allegedly introduce land taxation, asserting that such claims are unfounded and politically motivated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCan Honourable Stephen Kalonzo inform the people of Kenya about the exact clause in the bill we submitted to the National Assembly that discusses taxation of land, freehold, or leasehold?” Mbadi asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He urged Kenyans to engage with the Finance Bill in a thoughtful manner by examining the actual proposals within the document, rather than relying on potentially misleading political narratives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
