In a recent interview with a local media house, former Mandera county senator Billow Kerrow delivered a concerning prediction for President William Ruto and his government. Kerrow suggested that the court might declare the entire Finance Act 2023 null and void, urging the head of state to prepare for the possibility of the entire act being thrown out.
Kerrow pointed out that Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah has presented a strong case against the government, which could potentially result in a victory for him. The former senator argued that the government made a critical error by allegedly introducing additional provisions into the bill during the committee stage. Omtatah skillfully highlighted this issue in his case, leading Kerrow to believe that the court may rule in his favor.
While it remains to be seen how the court will rule in Omtatah’ s case, the prediction by Billow Kerrow has sparked concern among supporters of President Ruto. The potential nullification of the Finance Act would not only be a blow to the government’ s financial plans but could also undermine its credibility and raise questions about the legislative process.
Observers are closely monitoring the developments surrounding this case, as its outcome could have far- reaching consequences for the government’ s economic agenda. It is anticipated that President Ruto and his legal team will carefully review the concerns raised by Kerrow and take appropriate measures to address any potential vulnerabilities in the Finance Act 2023.
As the legal proceedings progress, both proponents and critics of President Ruto’ s administration eagerly await the court’ s decision on this matter. The ruling will undoubtedly shape the future of the government’ s financial policies and determine the course of action required to rectify any legal shortcomings in the Finance Act.
