Edwin,

In addition, the Mututho law has made one assumption, that all Kenyans work between 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

With most BPOs operating  24 hours, I foresee our  BPO employees suffering a great deal.

This can increase attrition levels, thus , greatly affecting the industry.

Washington,

 

I agree with you. While a fairly internet savvy and informed individual as myself and you are able to read and understand the law and what rights accrue to us, majority of Kenyans do not. Our Police (and to a great extent because of the horrid conditions under which they serve) have taken advantage of this to extort Kenyans. The Mututho law in principle is meant to protect us, but how it is being enforced is what I question. That said, how can we harness the power of ICT to change that?

Hi Listers,

 

Anyone have suggestions on how  ICT can/should protect Kenyans from the “overzealous” Kenyan Police? esp, from punitive and to my personal opinion, “not well thought through laws “ like the “Mututho” law? These cops/crooks are extorting Kenyans!!

 

 

Maybe ICT can protect you, but the surest way is to ensure that you first understand the law itself.

So we need to identify what loopholes are there for the cops to abuse and address them.
