Blogger Cyprian Nyakundi faces arrest after skipping court


A judge has issued an arrest warrant for controversial blogger Cyprian Nyakundi after he failed to show up for his sentencing in a case he is accused of defaming Safaricom chief executive Bob Collymore.

The blogger, who had been given 10 days to justify his continued defamation of Mr Collymore before appropriate punishment against him can be taken, did not show up in court Cyprian Nyakundi.

Mr Collymore wants orders to have Mr Nyakundi jailed for disobeying an injunction issued on July 18, 2016, blocking him from publishing defamatory articles concerning alleged corruption in the media industry in Kenya.
