For months now, there has been a lot of information circulating online, connected to the legalization and/or criminalization of same-sex marriages in Kenya. We go back to one of the events that led to this - the Supreme Court's ruling in February 2023.
Claims that this ruling, as alleged by many, legalized same-sex marriages in Kenya, are FALSE.
Before resharing false information, STOP, REFLECT, VERIFY.

Meet Malinfo, the drummer in Orchestra MalMisDisAmpPropaganda. Unlike misinformation, which is false information shared without the intent to deceive, malinformation is created and spread with the specific purpose of causing harm or manipulating individuals or groups. It can be spread through social media, news articles, or even memes. Malinformation can have serious consequences, including damaging reputations, inciting fear or hate, and influencing political or social outcomes. Let's make sure we use our social media platforms responsibly by verifying the credibility of the information we share. #FactsMatter #FumbuaUkweli
