Really concerned that our nation is regressing to the dark days. The spirited effort by Parliament to silence independent media is troubling. President Kenyatta should reject the bill outright. After promulgation of the new Constitution (with all the lofty aspirations), emasculating press freedom only takes us back. Now that we know that the legislature cannot perform any meaningful role in checking the executives excesses and the judicial branch is embroiled in self-destruction, Kenyans sole hope remains in a free, vibrant and professional media. If democracy is to take root in Kenya, then we must allow journalists to hold the mirror in our collective faces.
