MCT, stakeholders hail restored media freedom
MEDIA stakeholders have expressed appreciation to President Samia Suluhu Hassan for directing authorities to desist from the tendency of banning and suspending media outlets.
“We are excited and elated,” said Kajubi Mukajanga in a statement reacting to the wide ranging speech by the president.
The remarks were part of assignments being given to permanent secretaries and their deputies after their being sworn in, along with several heads of key executive agencies. What she said raised high expectations, the veteran head of the self-regulating media ombudsman declared.
The speech also shed light on the way forward to review media laws and regulations, to amend them as required so that our country will be a nation that talks and freely discusses issues.
