Exploring the challenges and opportunities that shape the future of Journalism during the Forum on Press Freedom and Media Ethics #happeningnow at The @uonbi #Freedom250 #DiscourseatUoN #WeAreUoN @HumanitiesUoN

This ruling reflects a broader misunderstanding of art, youth culture, and the creative economy. Criminalizing graffiti on matatus risks dismissing an entire artistic ecosystem that has become a powerful expression of Kenyan urban culture and a source of employment for many young creatives. From graphic designers and painters to fabricators, installers, and branding teams, this industry supports livelihoods and has helped shape the globally recognized identity of matatu culture. The conversation should be about regulation, safety, and compliance,particularly where visibility and road safety are concerned not the blanket criminalization of artistic expression. This is exactly why every institution, including the courts, must develop a deeper understanding of the creative industry and its economic impact before making decisions that could unintentionally undermine youth employment and cultural innovation.
