There has been an angry response in Kenya to a decision by the authorities to introduce a new salary levy to help build low-cost homes.
From next month, employees will pay 1.5% of their pay to the housing fund and that amount will be matched by the employer.
The anger stems from suspicion that the extra money could be lost through corruption, correspondents say.
The government aims to build 500,000 affordable homes by 2022.
The total monthly payment per person will not exceed Ksh.5,000 , but it is hoped that Ksh 50000m will be raised every year.
The Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) says the move to introduce the levy is against a court order, which suspended its introduction pending a hearing on the FKE’s objection. A trade union umbrella body has also opposed the money-raising move.
Many on Twitter questioned where the money would go, with the suggestion that the government tackle corruption first. Others questioned how they could afford the levy while also facing a rise in the cost of living.
