In a statement issued from the Basilica, the church criticized the bill as oppressive and endorsed calls for its rejection.

During Sunday’s sermon, leaders of the anti-Finance Bill demonstrations led by Gen Z and millennials urged Kenyans to support the nationwide protest, announcing peaceful demonstrations from Nairobi’s General Post Office (GPO) to the Kenya National Archives starting at 3 p.m.

A protester interrupted the service as he walked to the front chanting ‘Reject the Finance Bill’ while carrying a Kenyan flag.

The church has termed the current state of the bill as oppressive, calling on Kenyans to stand in solidarity.
