The presidential debate will be happening today (Tuesday), and Kenyans are anticipating a rigorous discussion around the problems they are facing. One of the main subjects I expect to feature is Kenya’s public debt problem.
The Azimio candidate, Raila Odinga, has said that he plans to restructure debt to ease the debt servicing cost Kenyans are shouldering. His Kenya Kwanza rival William Ruto has said that he doesn’t intend to restructure debt but increase the tax base.
