The High Court has suspended implementation of a new digital identity card known as Maisha Card which the government had announced will be renewed every 10 years, pending determination of a petition filed by a Garissa-based lobby group.
Justice Lawrence Mugambi suspended effecting of the Unique Personal Identifier known as Maisha Namba, the rollout of the 3rd Generation ID card, the Maisha Digital ID and Maisha Database, which is expected to consolidate existing and independent databases into a single register.
