Kenya’s President William Ruto on Friday reacted with fury following a Court of Appeal ruling that stopped the government from collecting a levy to fund his flagship housing project, a deduction the High Court had declared unconstitutional.
In different stops in a meet-the-people tour, President Ruto was initially defiant — terming the will of the people as “the voice of God”, enough to allow him to continue with the plan despite the order—but later clarified that the government intends to appeal the ruling and regularise the law as had been pointed out by the High Court.
