President Uhuru Kenyatta's handshake with Raila Odinga is a burden to all Kenyans, an ODM legislator has claimed.
Dagoretti North MP Simba Arati in an interview at Egesa FMsaid Kenyans can't celebrate the handshake anymore.
"Poor Kenyans in villages have nothing to celebrate about the historic handshake between Raila and Uhuru because the newly introduced 8 per cent VAT on petroleum products is meant to steal from poor Kenyans," he said.
Arati said Raila and Uhuru are not patriotic following the imposition of the huge tax on fuel.
The vocal MP accused a section of Gusii MPs who boycotted the Special sitting on Thursday last week.
"Some MPs from the Gusii region are a disgrace and the electorates should send them home in 2022. Those who boycotted the special sitting to shoot down the 8 per cent VAT on fuel tax are not truly representing the interests of the electorates," he said.
