This comes after Laikipia East Member of Parliament Mwangi Kiunjuri announced he lost his verified Facebook page to hackers.

In a statement, the former CS said he lost total control of the page on November 14, 2023, and efforts to recover it have proved futile.

"To All of You My Followers & Friends, my attention has been drawn to unusual posts appearing on a Facebook Account that I owned until 5 (Five) months ago - Hon. Mwangi Kiunjuri. It was hacked on Nov 14, 2023. All efforts to recover it have so far, regrettably been unsuccessful," Kiunjuri stated.

The Laikipia East MP’s page has been posting controversial things including horse mating, fishing activities abroad, and other commercial activities that are not associated with Kenya or Africa.
