Kenya Bankers Association urges 5% PAYE cut for all earners, challenging Ruto’s targeted exemption

The Kenya Bankers Association has called for PAYE income tax rates to fall by five percentage points across all earnings levels. Its proposal differs from President William Ruto’s plan to remove PAYE for workers earning no more than Ksh32,333 monthly. The debate matters to Kenyan households because the two approaches would distribute tax relief differently, with the bankers seeking benefits for earners beyond the president’s proposed threshold.
