Source: Twitter Morara, a fierce critic of President Ruto, has long positioned himself as an independent voice in Kenyan politics, seeking to challenge the status quo. However, his decision to wear the same high-end brand as the head of state has left many with questions. Does Morara Kebaso secretly admire Ruto’s style? Is he unintentionally mirroring the very leader he critiques? More controversially, Morara has built his reputation on grassroots civic education and public advocacy, often relying on public donations to fund his initiatives. This has led some Kenyans to criticise his persistence in soliciting contributions, with detractors accusing him of being overly reliant on public goodwill. Now, donning a shirt worth nearly KSh 200,000, Morara’s critics argue that his luxurious fashion choices contradict his public appeals for financial support. If he can afford high-end designer wear, they ask, why does he need donations?

Morara Kebaso’s net worth and business ventures Morara has faced ongoing scrutiny over his source of wealth, particularly after his publicised run-ins with the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA). However, in a past interview with Dr. King’ori, he openly addressed speculation about his finances. While initially hesitant to disclose his net worth, he later revealed that he is worth over KSh 100 million. Contrary to assumptions, he insists that wealth can be accumulated ethically in Kenya, referencing nations like Syria, the Gaza Strip, and Zimbabwe, where resilience and ingenuity have led individuals to financial success despite economic hardships. Is Morara Kebaso paying his taxes? KRA previously accused the activist and 2027 presidential aspirant of evading taxes amounting to KSh 27 million. According to KRA, Kebaso allegedly earned over KSh 186 million between 2022 and 2024 through six businesses but filed nil tax returns during the same period. However, Kebaso refuted these claims, providing tax compliance certificates for 2023 and 2024 as proof of his adherence to tax regulations.
