Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) CEO Ezekiel Mutua has weighed in on the leaked nude video of former UNCTAD boss and 2022 presidential hopeful Mukhisa Kituyi.
According to Mutua, nobody is permitted to make and produce nude films of others without their approval stating that it’s a breach of the Films and Stage Plays Act Cap 222.
“Making videos of others while naked, with or without their approval, is a breach of the Films and Stage Plays Act Cap 222, said Mutua.
He added, “No film or class of film for public exhibition shall be made without a filming license from the Board.” Now you know!”
For the better part of Thursday, Dr Kituyi has been a man under siege after an unknown woman leaked a video on social media showing a person reported to be him naked in bed.

In the video, the former Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) was deep asleep and completely naked as a woman records her.
It remains unclear the circumstance surrounding the video that is believed to have been recorded in a hotel room, with the video becoming the talk of town for the second day.
Among commenters was former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko, who criticized Dr Kituyi’s actions as depicted in the video.
“Some men are very useless and big for nothing. Unawachaje dame na simu kwa pekejeng?” said Sonko.

Alinur Mohammed: “Mukhisa Kituyi story has taught men; Anytime you meet a slay queen, before she enters that room ensure her smartphone is off, no clothes on, search her to ensure she has no hidden camera. If she must have a phone let it be Kabambe or it will end in premium tears like for doktari”.
