KENYANS MUST NOW WITHDRAW THEIR AUTHORITY TO BE TAXED! KENYANS WILL NOT PAY FOR WASTE AND CORRUPTION. THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION BY THE PARTNERSHIP FOR CHANGE.
The government has removed all taxes for goods and services used by the President. Is this fair?
Join the Partnership for Change in demanding equal treatment for all Kenyans. If Kenya’s Political Class won’t pay their taxes, NO KENYAN SHOULD PAY ANY TAXES ON FOOD, MEDICINE, FUEL OR ELECTRICITY.
On Jamhuri Day, December 12, 2008 we demand:
1. That tax relief is given to the poor. All taxes on food, electricity be removed to reduce prices by 30-60% and give relief for millions.
2. That all Kenyans be treated equally. Either all Kenyans, including judges and MPs are required to pay income taxes or NO KENYAN SHOULD PAY INCOME TAX. It is unfair to allow the rich and the powerful to evade tax while misusing the contributions of the poor.
3. That the government stops paying for corruption including Anglo-Leasing and Ken Ren Fertiliser factory immediately.
4. That the government spends at least 60% of the budget on development that will benefit all Kenyans instead of spending 85% of our budget on salaries, luxury, travel, allowances, flashy cars and fuel for a few politicians.
5. That the government stops borrowing money to pay for luxuries and corruption.
TAX BOYCOTT
If the government fails to do that, we ask that all patriotic Kenyans join us in refusing to pay taxes to a cruel and wasteful government that does not care about us. We must withhold our taxes. We pay the most taxes (over 70%) through VAT and we can stop or reduce our payments to the Government……………..

I have just read the followong Statement
”
Kofi Annan, the former UN chief who received the finished investigation in October, has threatened to take the report’s perpetrators list to International Criminal Court in The Hague if Kenyan legislators—some of them included on the list—persist in trying to suppress the report and block trials at home
”
From the link below:

Why would The Waki Report be used by Kofi Annan as a blackmail if he is sure that the current leaders of Kenyan Coalition Government are criminals that should be taken to the Criminal Court at Hague? Additionally, why were the invetigationsabout the violence in Kenya resulting from the very rigged elections of 2007 not done prior to the formation of the coalition government so that the culprits in power could be charged before being intalled to do more more damage to the public from their positions of power?
