Court on Wednesday, April 17, suspended President Uhuru Kenyatta's housing fund levy a day after the government announced deduction of the controversial levy from salaries will commence in May 2019.
This comes after the Consumers Federation of Kenya (Cofek) moved to court to stop implementation of the housing levy which it termed unconstitutional.
