The Kenyan government broke its silence today, issuing a harsh statement that targeted all Kenyan television outlets.
On June 3, 2024, the Kenyan government issued a new restriction through the Communications Authority of Kenya (CAK) that only affects television stations within Kenya’s broad borders.
The Kenyan government prohibits all television stations from broadcasting advertisements with the tags breaking news or news flash.
Furthermore, the Kenyan government has declared it illegal for any TV station in the country to broadcast animations depicting violent scenarios. The state has suggested that the major goal of this strategic prohibition is to prevent kids from exposure to such content.
The Kenyan government has stated that the recently imposed ban will greatly streamline the enormous media sector and regulate the content provided to children.
