Kiharu Mp Ndidi Nyoro wants pending bills owed to the media paid

Kiharu Mp Ndindi Nyoro has raised concerns over the state of media freedom in Kenya, accusing the government of frustrating independent media houses, by delaying payments for government advertisements. Speaking at Weithaga boy’s senior school in Murang’a, Nyoro said many media organizations are struggling financially, because they have not been paid for services already rendered. Nyoro warned that continued withholding of the funds could lead to the collapse of several independent outlets, and urged the government to immediately settle all pending bills owed to media houses.
