Kenyan Content Creators Protest KFCB’s New Guidelines
Famous content creators Njugush, YY Comedian, Mammitto, Mulamwah, Natalie Tewa, Jacky Vick alias Awinja and Abel Mutua have led Kenyan content creators to protest the new Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) guidelines. KFCB issued new rules and requested the Kenyan content creators to comply with them within 14 days, failure to which they will face the law. Kenyan Content creators had previously protested digital tax in the previous financial year. In a letter written to Eunice Mammitto, KFCB accused her of not acquiring the requisite filming licenses from the board. The board further reminded her that the section 4 of the act requires all content creators to have filming licenses. Additionally, the board reminded her that section 12 states that all films of classes distributed within Kenya must be examined by the board and a certificate of approval provided to them. Mammito lamented the board for making their filming harder. Jacky Vike said that the board decided to start regulating them the moment they experienced international recognition, increased job creation and positive content creation. She blamed the body for staying dormant only for them to arise now. Jacky also stated that KFCB did not consider to have a sit with the content creators implying the evil nature of their plans. Abel Mutua, popularly known as Mkurugenzi, was not left behind in this online protest. Mkurugenzi reacted by tagging KFCB through his posts and saying that he is shocked to receive such guidelines. Eddie Butita in the U.S. Njugush, who is also a You Tuber, said that sending the video to the bard may be challenging especially if it is a trending story. He asked KFCB to clarify whether they are seeking more money or gagging. KFCB had requested that once a person shoots a video clip, he should send it to them first for them to approve it. Previously, YouTube content creators used YouTube own checks to approve content. KFCB new rules came barely a year after President Ruto revealed that some content creators like Eddie Butita and Njugush earn more than him. This happened during the Kenya National Drama Festival State Concert at State House. The two comedians, who were present at the function, encouraged young creators to be creative and trust the process. Ruto asked Kenyans not to look down upon content creators as they earn a lot of money. Eddie Butita earned himself a lot of respect from the president. On the President’s visit to the U.S, Butita accompanied him as a part of the entertainment industry team. Butita’s main aim was to come up with ways on how to improve the entertainment sector.
Multitudes are Seeking Refuge as Armed Militias Assault Al-Fashir in Sudan
Rapid Support Forces (RSF) raided a camp in the Sudanese City of Al-Fashir, leading to lots of people running away from their homes. RFS are struggling to grab the final army stronghold in the Western Darfur Region. On Wednesday, May 22, 2024, RFS soldiers launched an attack on the Vast Abu Shouk Camp. This attack occurred barely a year into Sudan’s war and it killed an unknown number of people, at the same time wounding at least 13 people. 60% of more than the 100,000 residents who reside in the area fled on Thursday. This information was provided by the Coordinating Committee for Refugees and Displaced People, which manages camps in the area. Locals stated that fighting continued in all other parts of Al- Fashir. Early last year, RFS and its allies attacked four other Darfur State Capitals. They were accused of ethnic driven killings of non-Arabs groups and other abuse claims in West Darfur- accusations which they later dismissed. Both the RSF and the army have made no comment on the latest attack in Al-Fashir, a historic core of power. They both have accused each other of the attack. Alice Wairimu Nderitu, the U.N special adviser on the prevention of genocide, stated that there was an increased risk of genocide. Wairimu added that there were allegations that genocide is already taking place. She disclosed this information on Tuesday, stating that residents of Al-Fashir and other parts of Darfur were the targets due to their identity and skin colour. A photo of two children with their mother walking to look for shelter Abu Shouk is the habitat of survivors of Darfur’s violence which occurred two decades ago. The armed factions, RSF precursors, fought with the Sudanese army and were suspected of genocide. Sudan has experienced a lot of violence for a number of years leading to people living in camps for protection. In April 2023, a war broke between RSF and the army in Khartoum, the capital city of Sudan. It led to more than half a million people moving to Al-Fashir in an attempt to escape the war. Since May 10, 2024, a minimum of 85 people have passed on at the only operating medical center in the south of Al-Fashir, according to the medical charity Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). MSF is known for its great support to countries experiencing wars, especially in the ongoing Gaza war. Residents and MSF say that there is a likelihood that the total number of victims is much larger as thousands of residents affected by the fights in the north, east and south are unable to reach healthcare providers. RSF blamed the army for executing large air scales, using human barricades and damaging Al-Fashir’s power station. Earlier in a statement issued by the security council of the United Nations, RSF and the army were requested to terminate the reinforcement of armed forces and take necessary measures to alleviate the situation. They were also asked to abide by the obligations in the international humanitarian law. The RSF attack comes at a time when the world is experiencing a never ending conflict between Israel and Palestine in Gaza, which has caused loss of a lot of lives. Gaza conflict has caused a lot of disagreements among countries with Kenya not left behind. President Ruto experienced a lot of protest from leaders when he wanted some Kenyan police officers to assist in the fighting of the war. In his recent visit to U.S., Kenyans who are reside in U.S. also protested the idea of deploying officers to Haiti. The council members also requested for an immediate termination of the conflicts as a way of achieving permanent cessation of violence. They urged all Sudanese to abstain from all differences that can lead to conflict and instability and instead support efforts for a long-term reconciliation.
Manchester United Will Fire Eric Ten Hag After FA Cup Final
Manchester United have decided to part ways with Manager Eric Ten Hag regardless of the outcome of the FA Cup final against rivals Manchester City. Suppose the club does decide to fire the Dutch tactician, this will be the most momentous decision that minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe will have taken since he assumed responsibility for operations at the English giants. This decision will be similar to the one the club took in 2016 by parting with Louis Van Gaal, despite the coach leading the team to winning the FA Cup that season. And now, reports in the English media claim that even lifting the trophy against their crosstown rivals will not be enough to save Ten Hag’s job. This will be a significant move for Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his partners since his company Ineos agreed to purchase a minority stake from the much-reviled Glazer brothers. Manchester United appointed Eric Ten Hag two years ago. Reports say that the club has been forced to make this decision after a torrid season that saw the club finish eighth in the just-concluded league season. This will be Manchester United’s lowest finish in a season since 1990. Ten Hag joined Manchester United with his reputation high after his exploits with Dutch club Ajax Amsterdam. However, the team has struggled this season, with many fans losing faith in him. Should United beat the odds and triumph against the Manchester City juggernaut, they will sneak their way into Europe next season. However, they will have to do so with a new man in the dugout, with Ten Hag’s fate already sealed. Ten Hag has already intimated that he had met with Sir Jim to review the disastrous season. However, it seems that the minority owner was not convinced by whatever reasons were laid out. The manager has had to deal with a slew of injuries to important players throughout the season. Stars like defender Lisandro Martinez, Left-back Tyrell Malacia, and the outgoing Raphael Varane have missed huge chunks of the games due to various injuries. In the past, the manager has expressed his frustration at the club’s medical team for not managing player injuries better. The team had to poach Gary O’Driscoll from Arsenal to address the issue. Eric Ten Hag Star striker Marcus Rashford meanwhile, has had an alarming dip in off, coupled with off-field disciplinary issues. Ten Hag also missed out on Harry Kane, his top striker target. He instead had to settle for young striker Rasmus Hojlund. However, the striker has struggled for form. Ten Hag has also had to contend with criticism leveled at him for some of the signings he has made since joining Manchester United. Anthony, who joined from Ajax for a reported 70 million pounds has struggled for form. Mason Mount, signed from Chelsea, is yet to justify the fee he was signed for. Meanwhile, Casemiro who was the team’s rock in the midfield one season ago after joining from Real Madrid, has struggled for form in the last season. Candidates Who Could Replace Ten Hag at Manchester United Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team will now start looking for a suitable candidate to replace the outgoing Dutchman. Reports say that they are looking at Thomas Tuchel, who parted ways with Bayern Munich recently. The club is also considering Mauricio Pochettino, who was recently fired by Chelsea. Ipswich Town’s Kieran McKenna, Brentford tactician Thomas Frank, and England Manager Gareth Southgate are also in the frame. Tuchel is at the top of the list at the moment. The club has also reportedly held tentative talks with McKenna, whose stock is high after leading Ipswich Town to promotion. Chelsea are also in the race for McKenna’s signature. In addition to his team finishing eighth in the league, Eric Ten Hag also had to deal with the indignity of Manchester United finishing last in their Champions League group. He did lead his charges to an electrifying 4-3 win against Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter-finals, but such good results have been too far in between.
Pastor Kanyari Breaks Down on TikTok Live as he Begs Kenyans for Forgiveness
Pastor Kanyari, who recently received condoms in a church, has decided to address the issue. He opened up to Kenyans on TikTok, seeking their forgiveness. He also stood by the female TikToker and urged Kenyans to forgive her too. Kanyari had earlier received condoms, pant liners and petroleum jelly as gifts from one of his fans in a church service. This raised a lot of concerns among Kenyans and TikTokers, many condemning him for disrespecting the altar. He said that he suffered from hypertension and insomnia because of the negative comments from disgusted Kenyans on social media. Pastor Kanyari cried and expressed sorrow during his live tiktok. He stated that he felt sorry for entertaining a woman who gave him condoms in a church. He continued to justify his mistakes pleading for forgiveness. On his TikTok Live, where he was singing the unastahili kuabudiwa worship song, Kanyari remorsefully cried while wiping his tears and sweat, showing he was genuinely sorry for what occurred. He promised that such a thing would never repeat. “What can I do my God?” He cried. He mentioned that he has cars and land outside, but is feeling pressured. He said it was bedtime but couldn’t sleep, still under pressure. He declared he wouldn’t sleep, stating he will kneel down as a way of being humble to God. Kanyari acknowledged that Faith M Peters, the TikToker who gifted him, was wrong and gave an example of a Bible story whereby a harlot , who was a prostitute, was about to be killed by people when Jesus stepped in and intervened by stopping them. He went ahead and defended her saying the church is a place for everyone regardless of what they do. He claimed that Faith was not born again and that was her first time in church. Ezekiel Mutua “Mimi nimefanya kazi ya Mungu kwa zaidi ya miaka thelathini na sijawahi ona kitu kama hio. Hakuna mtu hakoseangi, msichana alikosea na sikutaka kumpiga au kumtusi kwa sababu washirika wangempiga (I have worked for God for 30 years and have never seen anything like that before. We all make mistakes, the girl made a mistake, and I didn’t want to beat or insult her because the congregation would have attacked her),” he said. Kanyari said that he was not aware of what was wrapped in the newspaper which the lady gave him. ”I am here to make this statement to say that I am sorry, I am sorry, sorry mara mia moja,” Kanyari said apologetically. Kanyari’s apology came a few hours after Ezekiel Mutua, the boss of Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK), had slammed him for his online misconduct terming it as mockery to the faith. Mutua said that Kanyari must be stopped through all possible means. He further vowed to collaborate with the relevant government ministries to address Kanyari’s trending story. As many Kenyans were against Pastor Kanyari, Thee Pluto, a Kenyan You Tuber, seemed to be defending Kanyari. Through his instagram stories, Thee Pluto, said that he does not understand why everyone is criticizing Kanyari because he received such gifts in his church. Pluto said that Kanyari had not asked for them. He emphasized that he is not saying Kanyari’s actions were good or bad but insisted that there are people who are worse than Pastor Kanyari. On the other side, Faith M Peters, said that she is not going to apologize for what she did to Pastor Kanyari. She said that she did not nothing wrong. In an interview session, Faith said that she did not damage the pastor’s reputation. She insisted that even when she was born she found a bad reputation of Pastor Kanyari.
