What Uhuru needs to do urgently to stamp his legacy

President Uhuru Kenyatta needs to do several things to the set pace towards a solid legacy by 2022. First, he must name a very competent Cabinet, one capable of timely delivery on his agenda. Then the new CSs must come up with concrete plans to save 40 per cent from recurrent expenditure.

Secondly, Uhuru needs to reform operations at KRA so that it is able to collect taxes from the informal sector. This will increase cash flows and render debt uptake by the Government almost unnecessary, allowing banks to infuse money into the private sector.
