Political analysts have warned that misinformation and disinformation could distort Kenya’s 2027 General Election by pushing voters to choose leaders based on emotion rather than facts.

Speaking on Spice FM on Wednesday, political risk analyst Dismas Mokua warned that failure to tackle false information could compromise the election.

“If we do not fight misinformation and disinformation, then we are going to compromise next year’s election. We are not going to elect leaders based on material facts but because of emotion,” said Mokua.
