The High Court has dismissed a petition by Busia senator Okiya Omtatah four years ago challenging the imposition of tax on petroleum products.
Mr Omtatah filed the case in 2018 challenging the 16 percent VAT tax, arguing that it was illegal and amounted to double taxation.
Justice Hedwig Ong’udi dismissed the case saying the court lacks the powers to interfere with the mandate of parliament.
