The Jubilee government on Wednesday signalled that the four television stations it switched off on Tuesday could remain in the state of paralysis indefinitely as it ‘investigates’ their participation in an “illegal act” of transmitting live broadcasts of the symbolic swearing in of opposition leader Raila Odinga as the ‘‘people’s president.’’
Interior secretary Fred Matiang’i claimed that the stations were bent on inciting violence that would have contributed to “a massacre of catastrophic proportions”.
