Ezekiel Mutua speaks after CA suspends Mt Kenya TV.
Kenya Film Classifications Board Boss Dr. Ezekiel Mutua has backed the Communications Authority of Kenya’s (CA) decision to suspend and fine vernacular station, Mt Kenya TV, after airing unsuitable content.
Sharing his sentiments via Twitter, Dr. Mutua urged media outlets to take responsibility and avoid exposing young children to adult content or else face the consequences.
“Mt. Kenya TV violated content regulations by airing pornographic content. Now CA has shut them off for a month and slapped a 500k on them. Protection of children from premature exposure to adult content is a collective responsibility. I hope this will serve as a lesson to others,” he wrote.
