The government has condemned a social media trend normalising gender-based violence (GBV) under the guise of entertainment.

In a statement issued on Friday, January 23, Gender Principal Secretary Anne Wang’ombe said the government had noted a rise in content presented as entertainment but misleadingly portrays GBV, warning that creators involved risk legal action.
