VIDEO: Pastor Ng`a nga`a Responds to MCK`s Suspension Threat Notice

The proprietor of SASA TV in Nairobi, Pastor James Nga'ng', has replied to the Media Council of Kenya's threat of suspension.

In a viral video of pastor Ng`ang`a targeting the MCK, he stated that he isn’t under the council but instead he is under the Communications Commission of Kenya {CCK}.
"I am not under Media Council, I am under CCK...we report to CCK.


This comes after the MCK had threatened punitive action against Sasa TV over breach of the Code of Conduct for the Practice of Journalism in Kenya.
MCK Chief Executive Officer David Omwoyo stated in a statement on Thursday evening that the station, which is owned by Pastor James Ng'ang'a of the Neno Evangelism, gave a platform and authorized the airing of objectionable content on October 9, 2021.


“The Council notes that the media house in question breached clauses 5 (b) (c) on Accountability and 10 (1) on Obscenity, Taste, and Tone in Reporting by allowing a presenter, Apostle James Maina Ng’ang’a in a live broadcast from “Jerusalem City Kenya” at 1024 hours where he uttered offensive and unprintable words on-air,” the statement read in part.


MCK had asked the station's management to demonstrate cause why no action should be taken against it, according to the CEO.

“further to which the Council will institute relevant sanctions in line with our mandate”.
