Githunguri residents urge MP Wamuchomba to vote against Housing Bill
Githunguri residents have urged their Member of Parliament, Gathoni Wamuchomba, to vote against the Housing Bill. The residents say that the bill will not benefit them and will only make it harder for them to afford housing.
The Housing Bill, which is currently before Parliament, would require all Kenyans in formal employment to contribute 3% of their basic pay to a housing fund. The money in the fund would be used to build houses for Kenyans.
The residents of Githunguri say that they cannot afford to contribute 3% of their pay to a housing fund. They say that they are already struggling to make ends meet and that this new burden will only make things worse.
The residents also say that the Housing Bill is unfair. They say that it will only benefit the wealthy, who will be able to afford to buy the houses that are built with the money from the housing fund.
The residents are urging MP Wamuchomba to vote against the Housing Bill. They say that she is their representative in Parliament and that she should fight for their interests.
MP Wamuchomba has not yet said how she will vote on the Housing Bill. However, she has said that she will listen to the concerns of her constituents before making a decision.
The Housing Bill is a controversial piece of legislation. It has been met with opposition from both the public and some members of Parliament. It remains to be seen whether the bill will be passed into law.
In addition to the concerns raised by the residents of Githunguri, there are other concerns about the Housing Bill. Some people worry that the bill will be used to benefit corrupt politicians and businessmen. Others worry that the bill will not be effective in solving Kenya’s housing problem.
The Housing Bill is a complex issue with no easy answers. It is important to weigh the pros and cons of the bill carefully before making a decision about whether or not to support it.
