Every Kenyan should be watching this show, as Kenyans we have alot to learn
Okiya Omtata and Fanya Mambo 2027
I'm very happy with mediation nd arbitration because it preserves relationships. Keep it up
This guy said govt should take only 20%. You guys don't seem to be listening to him. Kenya does not provide its citizens with services that are commensurate to the taxes they collect. You don't have to put up with a govt that taxes you to death.

Fanya Mambo Kinuthia was not urging us not to pay taxes; rather, he is supporting boundaries and deadlines. Either CT Muga did not listen to Fanya Mambo Kinuthia closely, or he purposefully presented ignorance. You forced him to say it twice. The president cannot simply wake up and start taxing Kenyans more heavily.
Mr Fanya Mambo. You've presented a very good presentation at the Studio and I'm convinced majority of Kenyans will definitely support your presentation & walk along with you all the way to the Courts to sue UDA Govt, under William Rutto

These are the minds we need in our political space
We should have such people in the government.
Mr. Fanya Mambo, I love your arguments and I support you all the way. It's shameful to see a group of leaders sitting only to suck citizens blood instead of coming out with innovative solution to economic growth apart from taxes
All salaried staff should support the likes of Fanya mambo kinuthia!
He brings very insightful perspectives to the table
This are brains we want here in Africa. it reminds me of black Panthers in USA. In the 60 s young intelligent young and militant .
He is fit to represent people in government.
I like how fanya mambo simplifies the understanding of paying taxes. I can’t plant my own cabbages which the government is unable to plant then the government comes for a share of my cabbages via tax
Fanya Mambo is really informed. Him, Omtata and others are wakombozi kamili of Kenya
Very informative discussion on taxable income. Congratulations!

Loans taken earlier are affecting net take home. Right?
Why can't they give 21 days notice for KRA official visiting your home? Many thanks
I got the perception that the Eric didn't want to grasp his point. He kept repeating that of the main issues he mentioned, he went to court to limit taxation and address KRA visitation without notice. Fanya Mambo keep doing mambo.
fanya mambo is a very eloquent guy.
I listen to fanya mambo....😂😂😂.i can compare to someone learned.😅😅😅
Kudos fanya mambo,arutta continua👊👊👊
Brilliant!! Taxes on salaries should be capped.
Very straightforward and up-to-date with the current situation in the country. He articulates issues very well and understands the constitution as to how the gov't should operate when working for the people. Fanya Mambo has the interest of the people at heart, because why would a gov't take Tax from my salary with the assumption that they are building houses, yet I have a house 🏠 of my own...
Now I believe Ruto wasn't voted by Kenyans

Fanya Mambo, you get it right as to direct taxation.
Fanya mambo ur true patriot. Kudos keep up.

This is very enticing and encouraging,this government should be stopped from robbing a few gullible Kenyans who struggle with meagre salaries when statehouse regulars wallow in luxury stolen from ,@ Fanya mambo and co.push until something happens.
Brilliant guy right there
Before they impose any tax to Kenyans let the illegitimate government create jobs in the first place. If every Kenyan has job to do then even if you tax them no problem but here you tax a Kenyan who doesn't have anything to support him or her.Ruto aondoke kwa ofisi sababu ushuru ya wakenya imekulwa na Hao watu..Fanya mambo kinuthia we are behind you.
one point very important I heard from this guy is that the government should look at other means of getting money and not taxing people to all manner of ways.

He is talking about direct taxes and fix a limit not about indirect tax .He has a point.
In my teens and early adulthood, we made clothes locally from local textiles. Fanya Mambo, it is possible to produce and sell locally as well as export. This was bottom-up because we started from cotton produced by Kenyan farmers

Kinuthia is a representative of Kenya worker because one Atwoli who is paid by Kenya employees deserted them to work for the government!
Privacy needed especially from KRA and tax collector's
Aki ,u spice team are enjoying this guy ,😂😂😂🎉😂 ,,have always admired ur intelligence tho😅😅
A guy who thinks exactly like me
I can't understand why do the government impose tax on gross salary then this amount is deducted in net salary.
We should all go to Court.
How can you paid the government services
Malema of kenya is Fanya Mambo
What he is saying is not out of the ordinary. I have been to a country where I could negotiate between 24%, 18% and 12% tax on earnings and for each percentage they tell me what the cons and pros are and then I decide on my own. That sense of ownership sometimes even made me chose 24% tax. Introduce functional analysts and actuarist into these tax issues an dgive kenyans options-that would be the best way forward.
CT how did the kenyans acquire the land? who ever signs those deeds should be forced to compensate and jailed for life
What will people of KENYA live on if all their money goes to RUTO? What is the point of all these TAXATIONS 😂
This guy and omatatah are smart
Zakayo!
Issues of new taxes should be an issue of a referendum
Eric do you live in kenya coz sometimes your questions are like you are supporting our suffering
I get his point of view. The majority of tax should be from indirect taxes which is directly related to the Country's productivity (case in point Germany & Mercedes Benz). Gvt creates a conducive environment for businesses, business thrives, gvt gets more taxes from Corporate taxes and VAT on the sold products. In Kenya PAYE collection at Shs 494 million is double VAT collection which means the 3% in employment are proper enslaved.
Contain and control.

They are trying to save their asses. They're scared of the truth being spoken at the studio. They fear that Ruto may pounce on them. That's why they behave the way they do. Eric is the epitome of that silly behaviour. CT & Ndu are just merely following in Eric's "footsteps." I used to like this show, lakini siku hizi hi show ni MATOPE! Eric licks Ruto's buttocks a bit too much.

No sober judge would take him seriously. This is more about appealing to public emotion for political expediency. He says hilarious, petty things about the Govt manifesto 😄, things I would never expect an educated adult male to say. But it's his self centered middle class rants about buying his kids luxuries that takes the cake, but how about the jobless youth in the slums who has to turn to crime to feed his family? Lest we forget, housing was a centerpiece of both manifestos, we should focus on addressing the needs of those struggling rather than trivializing their plight.

Factcheck, your guest Fanya Mambo, Sanjay Gadhi National Park is inside Mumbai city. Nairobi is not the only city with a national park.
I want Ruto to increase taxes by 10 0000 zillion kenya shillings. I want ruto to increase poverty and inequality by 700 000 zillion kenya shillings. By selecting ruto kenyans agreed to politrickal patronage cronyism and thuggish and gangsterish and criminals. Lower quality of life for all kenyans except politrickal cronies of government. Sasa all kenyans must embrace this serekali and not complaining
Let me baptis him new name Martin Luther King for he resemble him and bright speech as him

Fanya Mambo has a good idea but he is caught up in the emotion. As at 28:41 he has not yet answered how they arrived to 20% which Latiff is still wanting to get an answer from him about it

Obviously it abitrary ... Preferably we would want to keep all of your salary. But since we need to pool resources to get certain things done we have to find an acceptable fraction of our income to give towards KNOWN common objectives. And 20% is an acceptable number because it has worked in many other countries. And it guarantees that you will keep at least 3 quarters of you pay that you worked for.

Reason, Evry other president has nver had to follow the rule of law. Before Ruto it was the Rule of the president. That is it. Kenyans are not used to the RULE OF LAW.
Its clear nowwhy he is called fanya mambo-good work -are you the opposition leader in Kenya?
Mr Fanya Mambo,you can't fire people who sponsored your campaign we are doomed as a Nation.,remember you become a CS because you supported the winning political party.

We should acknowledge the fact that our constitution is considered one of the most progressive in Africa. However, it is important to recognize that funding all the offices, services, and programs that we desire requires a significant amount of money. The question then arises: where should the government obtain this funding? One option is to borrow more money. However, it is crucial to understand that borrowing creates a postponed debt that we will eventually have to repay at a later date. This means that while borrowing may provide immediate funds, it also adds to our long-term financial obligations. Therefore, it is essential to carefully consider the implications of borrowing and explore alternative sources of revenue to ensure sustainable financial stability in the long run.

Facts of life about leadership and walking your own journey. You will not be liked by everybody but walk anyway. You will not be accepted by everyone but keep walking, you will be hated by some but keep walking, you will have to use the stick in some instances, use it and keep walking, you will not be appreciated but keep walking, you will be uncomfortable but keep walking, you will be lonely but keep walking, the scribes will script falsehoods and gossips from your enemies but keep walking, once the world knows you can stand up against hate, prejudice, gossips, misinformation, arrogance and ignorance from your enemies and their sycophants...you gain respect even from your enemies supporters. A strong leader is steadfast in his objectives not one who hesitates to stand strong in adversity. Those who try to scatter your determination with their I'll will and negativity must come to the reality that you are not a leader who swings under opposition hostility but who sails on his own winds..a leader is not here to impress his detractors or impress his base but to sojourn his set objectives which could be bitter and sweet at different times for a more stable and probably a more prosperous future by God's grace.
