Well, I have seen a number of people celebrate the closure and opening of the radio station. Can someone now give us a concise reason why the station was closed to begin with and why it was reopened?
Angelo Izama was sacked in the process and the radio station fined some 4 million shillings. Is this the price for returning the show on the air?
I am neither supporting nor opposing any of the sides. I just do not have a coherent reason for the actions and reactions. It seems to me we are covering 'under the rug' a lot of valuable issues and lesson here. People have mentioned freedom of the press, respect for the president and Rwanda genocide. My previous email did not allow me to retain most mail due to storage and I had a chance to read the transcript of the Mwenda show that day. I no longer have it because it would have been good to read it again in view of the government reaction.
If you support freedom of the press, you would want to know what 'freedom of press is not absolute' means, wouldn't you? how is it applied and who applies it?
