What you need to know:

  • President Ruto signed the Affordable Housing Bill 2023 into law on March 19, 2024.
  • Under the new law, Kenyans will have 1.5 per cent of their monthly salary deducted.

A group led by Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah has gone to court seeking an order to quash the recently passed Affordable Housing law.

The petitioners have termed the new law as unconstitutional and illegal.
