President William Ruto's administration is once again under scrutiny for undermining press freedom, following the shutdown of several television stations last week.
This move, widely condemned by media and civil society, mirrors similar actions taken under previous administrations, actions which courts have previously ruled unlawful.
In 2018, the High Court blocked the closure of three TV stations by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Despite this precedent, the current government has followed a similar path, disregarding legal and constitutional safeguards.
