#NakuruLandRates #ProtestInNakuru #LandRatesHike #NakuruResidentsProtest #GovernorSusanKihika #NakuruCounty #FightForFairRates #KenyaNews Outraged Nakuru residents are up in arms, chanting “Susan Must Go!” in a fiery protest against the proposed land rates by the Nakuru County government. The residents, led by community leaders, are threatening to storm the County Assembly if Governor Susan Kihika and local ward representatives don’t halt the controversial draft valuation roll set to take effect in January 2025. With rates expected to skyrocket by 2% of property value, residents from Kaptembwo, Kwa Rhonda, and Mwariki Farm are accusing the county of punishing the poorest estates, where basic services like drainage, roads, and security are severely lacking. The protest is gaining momentum, with leaders vowing to reject the rates if the county fails to address their grievances.
