    One Kenya Alliance (OKA) wants President Uhuru Kenyatta to lift the Covid-19 restrictions in the country by end of July.

    Through a Press conference yesterday, the alliance called on the government to address certain issues including economic safeguards that will help revive the economy affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

    “We also call on the government to reintroduce the earlier economic safeguards that include a review of tax regime to stimulate the economy. To this end, we know that corruption is stifling economic revival. We, therefore, called upon the government to intensify its fight against corruption, Makueni Senator Mutula Kilonzo Junior said on behalf of the alliance.
