Mutahi Ngunyi has Caught the Kenyan Media Pants down .
Newsroom Updated 2 min read
The Kenyan media has been hyping lifestyle audit on public officials . Former prime minister Raila Odinga has supported a lifestyle audit on all government officials ' There is no way a government official whose Salary is known can buy a house worth millions in a few months '' President Kenyatta Must take charge- Said a furious Raila in Kisumu Sunday .
But then the Kenyan media wont be left behind . As they campaign for a lifestyle audit on government officials, Some media personalities are swimming in a sea of riches made from Kickbacks . Kickbacks and the Kenyan media are two sides of the same coin . Do you remember when Swaleh Mdoe and Mwanahamisi were suspended after receiving a bribe from a flamboyant senator to Kill a story ? That is one of the cases that Citizen tried to kill but in our dynamically changing digital space, hiding the truth is becoming a nightmare .
We all know the media poseurs who are paid to do PR for failed CEOs. In fact the media lifestyle audit should start with business Journos because they are the most corrupt.
CNYAKUNDI.COM readers Might have read the article I did . In 2012, the Ministries of Sports and Tourism combined efforts to launch what was referred to as “Kenya House” to run concurrently with the London 2012 Olympics, which costed the taxpayer hundreds of millions of shillings. To clean up the scam, Julie Gichuru was paid millions of shillings host events and televise from Kenya House, even though no meaningful benefit accrued from the expensive undertaking. Popular Political Scientist Mutahi Ngunyi has also raised concerns about the Corrupt Kenyan media . See what he Tweeted . Ask the EDITORS how much they are PAID for a HEADLINE! And how much they EARN to make a TOP TV Story. EACC Should AUDIT their LIFESTYLES...! We all know the media will slow down their Lifestle audit on government officials campaign if everyone starts demanding that they undergo a lifestyle audit. Just like politicians and many government officials, the media guys will find it hard to account for their wealth .
