A human rights lobby has asked Kenyans to boycott the ongoing national registration for Huduma Namba citing non-existent data protection measures.

The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) also wants Government to suspend the National Integrated Identity Management System (NIIMS) until data security and protection of marginalised communities is ensured.
