Since we still live in the world of democracy on hold, where there are still countries without free press and media, where articles about anything that involves politics get censorship, where journalists disappear from the face of the earth as a ghosts and where talking or just thinking against politics and government are considered as a sentence to death, every news about change is more than welcome.
In new and modern Kenya, with more open journalism we can see some new glance of democracy.
Looks like in past few years media and journalists get more freedom and options to write and do their jobs.
President Mwai Kibaki had all good words about journalism and improvement in reporting. Better conditions and new technology gave serious results. While he was at the Pan Africa Media Conference at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC) on Thursday, he praised citizen journalists as well as journalists and complete media in Africa saying that Africa has changed and still changing media and information system.
As it was said in the article :
He urged players in the media industry to be guided by public good while executing their unique roles of informing, educating and entertaining the society because they hold the communication channels as custodians of the public good.
As a conclusion all we can say is to invite journalists and citizens to continue their work and let the world know what is happening in their countries.
