The office has therefore reminded Kenyans that all official communication from the retired President, or matters concerning his office, can only come from established and verified channels.
These include the official platforms of the Office of the 4th President and the verified Jubilee Party communication channels.
Any statement or message shared outside these platforms should be treated with caution and verified before being believed or shared further.
The statement emphasized that the office is fully committed to ensuring that accurate and truthful information reaches the public in good time.
This commitment, the office said, is part of its responsibility to keep citizens properly informed and to avoid confusion that may arise from false reports or fabricated statements.
In recent times, social media has become a powerful tool for communication, but it has also been misused to spread rumors and falsehoods.
The Office of the 4th President warned that such misuse can damage reputations, mislead citizens, and weaken public confidence in national institutions.
For this reason, the office urged Kenyans to be more vigilant when consuming and sharing information online.
Citizens were encouraged to always confirm the source of information, question suspicious posts, and avoid sharing unverified content.
The office stressed that spreading false information, even unknowingly, contributes to the problem and undermines efforts to promote truth and accountability in public discourse.
The statement also reaffirmed that the dignity and respect of the Office of the 4th President of the Republic of Kenya remains a top priority.
Any attempt to misuse the name of the former President for personal, political, or malicious reasons will not be taken lightly.
