Criticism and Legal Challenge Against President Ruto's Cyber Laws

The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and musician Reuben Kigame have filed a court petition challenging the constitutionality of Kenya's cyber laws. Former Chief Justice David Maraga criticized President Ruto for signing the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes (Amendment) Bill into law, asserting that the administration's proposed bills are suppressing the freedom of Kenyans. Similarly, Governance Commentator Ahmed Hashi is urging Kenyans to reject the proposed laws, claiming they are an attempt to restrict freedoms. In a differing view, Lawyer Jared Mugendi stated that he does not believe Article 33 of the Kenyan Constitution, which protects freedom of expression, is under attack. Mugendi argues that the clear memorandums in the bills should carry more weight than oral discussions.
