This happens as Kenyans continue camping International Monetary Fund’s facebook page, pleading with them not to loan Kenya ever again.
Some allies of Dp Ruto, also called out on lending institutions not to give loans to Kenyan government without proper utilization plans.As per the reports, Kenyan total debt stands at 7.2 trillion Kenyan shillings.
The petition being signed by Kenyans against the loan is now at 75000 signatures.
