National assembly of Kenya speaker Moses Wetangula is a man under pressure after his plans were leaked to the public.
According to seasoned journalist Letoo. Wetangula is planning to ban journalists from covering live the proceedings at the assembly because of their involvement in airing Occupy the parliament protests.
Other renown journalist who is banned from accessing the assembly is Seth Olale of citizen television.
It is not yet clear why Wetangula chose that route instead of engaging the journalists directly. Do You think it is a good move to ban journalists from covering the proceedings?
“So now @HonWetangula National Assembly Speaker and PSC Chair wants to KICK OUT Journalists Covering Parliament from the Precints (Media Centre) on grounds we are a source of ‘insecurity to MPs’ following #OccupyParliament coverage! If N.A wants blackout, Senate wants transparency” Posted Leto.
“Other than relocation of Parliamentary Journalists to Outside Parliament, there is a resolution to BAN some journalists myself included who Covered #OccupyParliament from stepping in the new area. Seth Olale who exposed the MPs escape tunnel also banned.”added Letoo
