The High Court of Kenya has suspended a directive barring Kenyans from accessing government services unless they are vaccinated.
Justice Anthony Murima issued the conservatory order this Tuesday, December 14, after a case was filed by Enock Aura through lawyer Harrison Kinyanjui.
Lawyer Kinyajui in his presentation argued that the directive would bar thousands of Kenyans from accessing the services given that many had not taken the jab.
The lawyer told the court that Kenyans are the ones funding the government services hence it is irrational to be denied because of the Covid-19 jab.
Health Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe had on November 21, announced that those who would not be vaccinated by December 22, will not receive govt services.
The services include but are not limited to KRA services, Education, Immigration services, Hospital and Prison Visitations, NTSA and port services among others.
The order suspending the services will remain in place until the case is heard and determined.
