The Atheists In Kenya Society has praised Chief Justice Martha Koome for proposing lesser punishment for prostitution through the Penal Code Amendment Bill 2023. CJ Koome made the proposals via the National Council on the Administration of Justice, which she chairs. ''Our position is that prostitution should be decriminalized and, in fact, legalized,'' Atheists further advised Koome to grant sex workers more freedom. Atheists in Kenya Society President, Harrison Mumia during a past interview NationSex workers, Mumia stated, should be treated equally under the law and given equal access to all services. Just as Mumia stated, the Judiciary claimed that it wants prostitution treated as a petty offence under county by-laws.
