January is arguably the most financially difficult month for Kenyans, and they have disagreed with a comedian's advice to squander their savings on holiday.

People are often advised to make wise financial decisions in December, considering the responsibilities awaiting them in January, to avoid the financial struggles that follow the festive season.

A popular comedian advised Kenyans to use their savings and enjoy the festive season in Mombasa.

In the video posted on Instagram, Tom Daktari remarked that there is no saving money in December and that one should use the money they made the whole year.

According to the comedian, December is the month to celebrate what you have saved and not worry about the next year.

"If you have never gone on holiday, go now. If you have never been to Mombasa, go now," said the comedian.
