The bill’s tax measures, which impact many aspects of life, have led citizens to use the leaked phone numbers to urge MPs to reject it.

Meanwhile, the government has issued a warning against sharing phone numbers online.

On Wednesday, June 19, the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner cautioned Kenyans against the trend of sharing the contacts and personal details of politicians and police officers on social media.

A statement from the Data Protection Commissioner noted that this trend has been ongoing for the past week without the consent of the affected individuals, violating Article 31 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2019, and its regulations.

“In view of the foregoing, the office wishes to advise members of the public to refrain from further sharing personal information that infringes on individuals’ right to privacy,” the statement read.

The statement also encouraged anyone whose privacy has been violated to file a formal complaint.
