Kenya Tv Stations To Remain Off-Air After Odinga ‘Inauguration’

Three of Kenya’s biggest television stations will remain off-air until further notice because they had planned to broadcast the opposition leader’s unofficial “inauguration” in Nairobi.
Interior Minister Fred Matiang’i told reporters they would stay closed until investigations were complete.
NTV, KTN and Citizen TV went off-air on Tuesday.
They had previously been warned not to cover the ceremony naming Raila Odinga as “the people’s president”.
However, Kenyan journalists denounced the move as outrageous and called for “respect of the constitution” and an end to the “unprecedented intimidation of journalists”.
