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. Mr Ruto on Tuesday vowed to quash unrest “at whatever cost”, even as more protests were called at State House on Thursday.Kenyans united beyond tribal and other divisions in a youth-led effort to keep the finance bill from becoming law. It would have raised taxes and fees on a range of daily items and services, from egg imports to bank transfers.There were no reports of violence on Wednesday, but there was fear.

Many young people who helped vote Mr Ruto into power with cheers for his promises of economic relief now object to the pain of reforms. Part of the parliament building burned on Tuesday, and clashes occurred in several communities beyond the capital.
