National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula has defended the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes (Amendment) Act, 2025, saying it seeks to protect the sanctity of the family unit particularly children while curbing violent extremism, online exploitation, and the spread of cultism.
Speaking on Sunday during a church service at St Teresa’s Isanjiro Catholic Church in Malava Town, Kakamega County, Wetang’ula dismissed claims that the law is intended to muzzle free speech, insisting it is a moral safeguard designed to promote responsible digital behaviour.
