The Migori chapter of the National Council of Churches Kenya (NCCK) has urged the government to mitigate the high cost of living affecting Kenyans.

Under the Migori chapter NCCK chairman Canon Joshua Abulo said president Uhuru Kenyatta should cut down on taxes and high fuel prices.

“The high cost of living and inflation has been made worse as income of people have been depleted by Covid 19 pandemic,” said.

In a statement read to the press in Migori town on May 28, 2021 the NCCK said they are deeply concerned about the continue suffering “due to constant rise of prices of basic commodities.”

“We plead with government to reverse the recent increase of taxes and price of fuel to give citizens a chance to weather through this difficult,” Abulo said.
