Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro warns Kenya heads for an economic crisis soon.
In an X post on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, he said heavy debt needs threaten the nation’s future.
Kenya takes on about Ksh1.2 trillion in loans each year. Nyoro says the economy can’t keep that up.
Debt alert for Kenyans
“Fellow Kenyans, we need to track our nation’s events closely,” Nyoro said. He calls on people to watch money choices by leaders.
He warns nonstop big loans will damage the economy over time.
“Our economy can’t handle Ksh1.25 trillion in loans per year,” he added.
Nyoro questions the new National Infrastructure Fund. He claims 90% of it comes from hidden loans.
“Did you know the new Fund relies 90% on secret borrowing?” he asked.
Ruto backs NIF
Nyoro speaks as talks heat up on Kenya’s rising debt and big public projects.
President William Ruto defends the National Infrastructure Fund. He says it will fund key areas for growth.
In a speech, Ruto said the money goes to roads, factories, and projects to lift lives.
“We mean it. Kenya must change now. We run late on beating hunger and poverty,” Ruto said.
He holds that Kenya can grow fast like Singapore, South Korea, and Malaysia. It needs rules, fixes, and smart spending in main areas.
“Kenya can change. They did it. Why not us?” Ruto added.
Nyoro says smart loans and public watch are vital. Without them, debt pain beats the gains.
