Justice Reuben Nyambati Nyakundi delivered a strong condemnation of the murder, stating, 'This was not a death that was excusable, this wasn't a death that was justifiable. This was malice aforethought.' The judge highlighted the betrayal, noting that someone close should have protected Chiloba's life instead of taking it.
The National Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission hailed the ruling as a 'landmark ruling,' describing it as a 'significant step toward justice for Edwin and all LGBTQ+ residents of Kenya, Africa, and beyond.' The statement emphasized the importance of this decision in the ongoing struggle for LGBTQ+ rights.
