Kenyans said the bill caused economic pain as millions struggle to get by.

Kenyan president William Ruto says he will not sign into law a finance bill proposing new taxes a day after protesters stormed parliament and several people were shot dead.

“It is necessary for us to have a conversation as a nation on how to do we manage the affairs of the country together,” the president said.
