Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro has stirred fresh debate over the real state of Kenya’s economy after indirectly questioning the government’s claims that the country is experiencing significant growth.

Speaking as per a  video shared by K24 TV on November 6, Nyoro said, “I should not be coming here to convince Kenyans how the economy is growing; it is them who should tell me the economy is growing.”

Nyoro’s statement has resonated with many Kenyans who feel the squeeze of a tough economy, despite the government’s optimism.

His bold remarks reflect the frustrations of ordinary citizens, who are struggling with high living costs, unemployment, and increased taxes under the current administration.

Nyoro, a vocal lawmaker from Mt. Kenya, believes that genuine economic progress should be visible to the people themselves, not just in reports from government officials.

According to sources, Nyoro’s relationship with the administration has been rocky since June, particularly after the backlash over the Finance Bill.

The bill, which brought new taxes, sparked protests and underscored the widening gap between the government’s economic promises and the reality faced by everyday Kenyans.

Nyoro’s comments come at a time when many Kenyans are questioning if the economic growth touted by officials truly benefits ordinary people.

“It is Kenyans who should be saying the economy is good,” he asserted, suggesting that it’s time for leaders to listen to the public instead of insisting things are improving.

His remarks have ignited a conversation on social media, with many agreeing that real economic progress should be felt at the grassroots level.

For Nyoro, it’s not enough for leaders to declare growth; the people themselves should be the ones to confirm that things are indeed getting better.
