The Standard e-Paper
Home To Bold Columnists
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
In a dramatic twist of fate, Prof Edward Waswa Kisiang’ani has been unceremoniously dropped as Principal Secretary for Broadcasting and Telecommunications and reassigned as an adviser to President William Ruto.
This follows his controversial directive barring government advertisements in private media, particularly the Standard Media Group, for being “anti-government.” While his reassignment may seem like a routine government reshuffle, it is, in reality, a disgraceful downfall of a man who once used the same media he sought to destroy, to build his own relevance.
