Former Attorney General Justin Muturi has rejected calls for new laws to compensate protest victims, arguing that the existing Victim Protection Act, 2014, is sufficient and only requires full implementation. This stance directly contrasts with Professor Makau Mutua's suggestion for new legal frameworks to address protests and their aftermath.

• The Victim Protection Act, 2014, is cited by Muturi as adequate, negating the need for new legislation.
• Professor Makau Mutua leads an initiative created by President Ruto to address grievances of those injured or who lost loved ones during past protests.
• The program, announced on August 8, 2025, by President Ruto, will run for 120 days and cover incidents dating back to 2017, involving both citizens and security personnel.
