Five senior Taita Taveta County government officials cited negatively by a whistleblower website in Taita Taveta have asked the Communications Authority to pull down the site.

This follows a temporary injunction and interim orders issued on November 2 by Mombasa Senior Principal Magistrate Charles Ndegwa barring the website owner, Mwashere Shuma, or his agents from publishing “libelous or defamatory statements or articles” against the officials.
