The African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights (ACHPR) has called on the government to take immediate action to end the arbitrary arrests and intimidation of journalists. In its recommendations, the ACHPR emphasized the need for the government to review and repeal certain provisions of the cybercrime legislation that may infringe on press freedom. The commission highlighted the importance of protecting the rights of journalists to ensure a free and independent media landscape. This appeal is part of the ACHPR's ongoing efforts to promote human rights and uphold the principles of freedom of expression across the continent.
