        Statement by the Kenyan Minister in Charge of Internal Security on the media shutdown. The Rwandan genocide was fuelled by irresponsible media. Media freedom must come with responsibility.pic.twitter.com/Hqyl8sAOch

        @Brenda you are wrong. Responsible journalism is not when you praise the evils of government and be appointed a cabinet post or get a head of state commendation. Journalism is reporting objectively whether wrong or right.

        So should the media broadcast the beheadings carried out by ISIS since according to you, objectivity is broadcasting everything whether right or wrong? In matters of national security, Country comes first.

        Get informed Uche. Know Kenyan politics. Speak from an informed point of view. Let us not just condemn when we don't know the truth. Just read a bit.

        Yet, you didn't provide any insight as per the issues on ground but you want me to read about the political crisis in Kenya. Lol Maybe you are Odinga's supporter. So,you're happy to have a parallel government where there is a legitimate one in place already.

        I do not need to read about Kenyan political developments to know that Raila Odinga has chosen to be insensitive. He's not helping anyone. He has chosen to destroy your nation. I am sorry.

        I advise you focus on Nigeria which seems to have its own problems. You will get alcers worrying about a country you know so little about.

        There was no one inciting violence or hate speech it was a rally for crying out loud... So responsible broadcast is only showing what pleases the govt or make them look good right, anything that paints an alternative picture is irresponsible.

        Learning from your neighbors all the wrong lessons.... You're supposed to learn how not to treat the press not replicate us.... Kenya govt media is not your enemy. Thats like punishing your family because you were robbed in town. Media doesn't exist to choose but follow the story
