Mombasa bar and restaurant owners have moved to court to challenge the current county Finance Act, claiming that the county is using it to collect taxes, levies, and charges for last year.

Through the Mombasa County Bars, Hotels, Restaurants and Guest House Association, they claim that the local government is coercing them to pay charges, levies, taxes and penalties for last year before they are issued with operating licences for 2021.
