Kirinyaga Woman Representative Njeri Maina has hinted at a plot to block the implementation of more sections of the controversial Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes (Amendment) Act, 2024.

This comes after the High Court in Nairobi issued orders halting the implementation of sections 27(1)(b), 27(1)(c), and 27(2) of the new law pending hearing of a petition filed by activist Reuben Kigame and the Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC).
