Dear President William Ruto,
At a time when Kenya is marking two years since the deaths of young Gen Z protesters, your public attack on Standard Media Group is deeply worrying.The media is not your enemy. A free press is not a favour from State House. It is a right protected by the Constitution. Its work is to ask questions, report facts, expose failure and hold power to account.

Conversations about reparations are ultimately conversations about people.

They're about recognizing harm, restoring dignity & exploring pathways to justice for those whose rights have been violated. Through public sensitization forums across Kenya, @HakiKNCHR continues to..

The Court of Appeal has held that you cannot keep a child away from their parent. In this case, the court made it clear that parental rights especially of a surviving biological parent cannot be overridden by customs. The father had shown willingness, ability, and commitment to raise his child and there was no evidence that he was unfit. The grandparents’ refusal to release the child, largely based on cultural demands like dowry, was found to be contrary to the child’s best interests.

Ultimately, the court emphasized that a child has a constitutional right to parental care, and that right takes priority over all other considerations. While the grandparents had cared for the child, the law is clear the natural parent comes first unless there are exceptional circumstances. Denying a child the love, care and upbringing of a capable parent is not just unfair, it is unlawful.
