A human rights lawyer and a transitional justice expert, Njonjo Mue, has warned President Uhuru Kenyatta and CS Fred Matiang’i for messing with people’s freedom and constitution. Njonjo stated that it is time Kenyans stood up and defended their rights that are being violated by the police and parliament.
Speaking during the International Commission of Jurists in Nairobi, Mue criticized police brutality directed to innocent students and Kenyans.
"We have seen university students being beaten, tortured and raped by police officers, who forcibly removed them from their lecture rooms and halls of residence, to terrorise them. No one has been held to account," said Mue as quoted by the Star.
He also rebuked President Uhuru Kenyatta for attacking the Judiciary. He pointed out the insults Uhuru hauled at Chief Justice David Maraga and the judges that annulled his win.
The lobbyists also faulted the election amendments that have been fronted by Jubilee. They stated that the timing is not good for the unity of Kenya.
