Court stops Parliament from forwarding the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2025 (National Assembly Bills No. 4), to the President for Assent: Justice Mugambi has allowed our (@katibainstitute, @thekhrc, @TISAKenya, @TIKenya) application and issued the following orders: 1. A conservatory order barring Parliament from forwarding the constitutional amendment bill to the president for his assent. Even if assented to, the assent shall not take effect until the petition is determined. 2. The file will be forwarded to the Chief Justice to empanel an uneven bench of judges. 3. The High Court of Kenya has jurisdiction to hear and determine the petition. Only the High Court, not Parliament, can determine the constitutionality of actions. @joshuamalidzo

The reason this is rightly trending in the news all around the globe is because orders to shoot protesters are outrageous, shocking and unlawful. In Kenya though, we don’t need audio leaks - our leadership is comfortable to give such orders with pride in public

@Kenyajudiciary Judiciary should not "clarify" rulings to pacify political class

@Kenyajudiciary Nowadays, the judiciary issues clarification on its rulings? How low have our institutions sunk!?

The Law Society of Kenya and the Police Reforms Working Group (PRWG) condemn the violent attack by armed goons on a press conference by Kenyan mothers hosted by the Kenya Human Rights Commission @thekhrc office today. This brazen act of intimidating and targeting of journalists, human rights defenders and vulnerable women and children, represents a grave assault on Kenya's constitutional freedoms and democratic principles.

High Court issues conservatory orders restraining the implementation of Executive Order No. 2 of 2023 – Organisation of Government: The High Court has issued conservatory orders restraining or stopping the implementation of the Executive Order to the extent that it purports to reorganise government and transfer the Public Seal from the custody of the Office of the Attorney-General to the Head of Public Service in the Executive Office of the President. Katiba Institute filed a Petition under certificate of urgency in the High Court of Kenya at Nairobi on 10 June 2025. The Petition challenged Executive Order No. 2 of 2023 – Organisation of Government of the Republic of Kenya issued by President William Ruto on 1 November 2023 to the extent that it transferred the public seal from the office of the Attorney-General to the Executive Office of the President under the custody of the Head of Public Service.

@KELINKenya @katibainstitute @AYARHEP_KENYA @MandelaTb @emilynyiva @NEPHAKKENYA @TBChampions_ke @ValNjogu @Kemsa_Kenya @ITPCglobal Access to continuous uninterrupted ARVs by PLHIV is a core component of their right to health under article 43 (1) (a) of the constitution of Kenya 2010.

📢Kenya’s HIV Community awaits justice as ARV Stockout case nears judgment, scheduled for 30th January 2025. Read all about it here: kelinkenya.org/kenyas-hiv-com… and follow the conversation via #EndARVStockoutKe

.@KevinWalumbe "TB is the most common opportunistic infection among PLHIV in Kenya, with HIV being the primary risk factor for reactivating latent TB infections. Shortages in TB commodities reflect the State's failure to adhere to the Kenya HIV Prevention and Treatment Guidelines, 2022. Stockouts of TB drugs, cartridges, and reagents indicate a significant lapse in implementing a comprehensive program to ensure the availability of TB medications for TB/HIV patients." #EndARVStockoutKe @AYARHEP_KENYA @NEPHAKKENYA @ahfkenya @katibainstitute @MandelaTb @TBChampions_ke @MalecheAllan @MalecheAllan @ValNjogu @emilynyiva @AseroPatricia @ahfinstitute
