The poll, conducted and financed by Infotrak Research and Consulting, shows that most Kenyans want the high cost of living, unemployment and corruption dealt with urgently as the year comes to a close. This year was also heralded as the opportune time to usher in an era of economic prosperity, anchored on lower cost of living, increased business and job opportunities. A closer look at previous surveys by the same pollster indicates that unemployment, corruption and the high cost of living have always topped the list of concerns at the close of the year.

All sectors of the economy are expected to ride on this stability to improve things for Kenyans in 2019.
