Information, Communication, and Digital Economy Cabinet Secretary William Kabogo has defended new penalties targeting misinformation, AI-generated fake news, misleading headlines, and unethical broadcasts. During a parliamentary review, he explained that the regulations align with global standards and aim to protect vulnerable audiences.
Speaking on the floor, Kabogo said the new Media Code would “provide clear guidelines to prevent future shutdowns and ensure responsible media coverage.” He argued that Kenya must address rising threats in digital spaces and said the media environment now faces new challenges.
The amendments, introduced under Legal Notice No. 88, expand enforceable clauses, impose fines from KSh 200,000 to KSh 1 million, and allow imprisonment of up to one year for major violations. The code also introduces a seven-second delay for live broadcasts to allow content screening and requires media outlets to separate betting and gaming content from news coverage. Kabogo said the delay reflects international standards and would reduce the risk of airing graphic or harmful content live, particularly during protests or emergencies.
He defended recent shutdowns of national TV stations during demonstrations, saying the move shielded children from violent scenes. Kabogo added that the new code would guide media houses to handle sensitive events responsibly while ensuring public safety.
However, some MPs voiced concern. Committee Chair Robert Gichimu and MP Samuel Chepkonga warned that vague terms such as “misleading headlines” might trigger self-censorship. They questioned whether financial penalties would fall on journalists or media owners.
Kabogo insisted that the code followed broad consultations with journalists, media groups, and legal experts. He said the goal was not to limit free speech but to enforce ethical and transparent media practices.
The Committee on Delegated Legislation will issue a final report, which may include revisions or clarifications before the code takes effect.
