Opposition chief Raila Odinga has dismissed President William Ruto's assurance that Kenya is headed towards growth, stating that Kenyans were worse off in the 14 months of his presidency.

Raila, who spoke during the Transforming a Nation Conference in Nairobi on Friday said the President's policies are failing, and criticised the government's tax policies as "rapidly changing and unstable".
