Nairobi County is out to further squeeze the city's residents with higher taxes and levies, even as they are still reeling from the recent tax measures that the national government has imposed on them following the implementation of the Finance Act 2023.

The Johnson Sakaja-ledd county government plans to hit hard the people that the Kenya Kwanza government romanticised as hustlers during the campaign trail.
