TikTok has removed 884,591 videos in Kenya for violating its Community Guidelines during the first quarter of 2026.
This comes at a time when the platform is intensifying efforts to curb harmful content and improve online safety.
According to reports, the Tiktok’s Q1 2026 Community Guidelines Enforcement Report revealed that the platform had removed 48,739 accounts belonging to users under the age of 13.

The removal was on line with its policies prohibiting children under the minimum age requirement from using the app.
Additionally, the report outlined TikTok’s growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and remove content that breaches its rules before it reaches a wider audience.
According to TikTok, the latest crackdown is part of its ongoing commitment to making the platform safer for users in Kenya while increasing transparency around how it enforces its rules.
Besides removing videos, TikTok said it is continuing to strengthen safety measures around TikTok LIVE, introducing tougher enforcement of its LIVE monetisation rules to ensure creators follow the platform’s policies.
The company further noted that more LIVE creators and LIVE sessions were either demonetised or issued warnings during the quarter as part of efforts to maintain a safe and authentic livestreaming experience.
