Kenyans have gone to social media to express their fury after President Uhuru Kenyatta failed to talk about it during the National Security conference held at Kenya School of Governance in Kabete.
The president who has been outside the country for China was expected by Kenyans to give a limelight on the way forward following the fuel tax that was brought to effect on 1st September in his absentia.
Members of the National Assembly had passed a bill barring the tax from taking effect but the president was not in the country to ascent it to law.
His trip to China had risen speculations among Kenyans, with many raising questions on the whereabouts of the president since the tax makes their lives hard.
Here are some of the reactions from Kenyans on Twitter.
Dear @UKenyatta I know the govt so much need the tax so much, may be just may be review it and return the 2/- Mpesa tax, this is one area many people will not feel the pinch but you shall have widened the tax bracket “President Uhuru Kenyatta” @RailaOdinga

President Uhuru Kenyatta has today announced reforms in the police sector, effectively reorganizing the command and control of the National Police Service; snubs the debate on 16% VAT on Petroleum products @Truthfmkenya
