“I Will Be Your Worst Nightmare With Your Small gods.” Mohammed Ali Warns Dennis Itumbi And Media Council of Kenya After They Called For His Resignation
Plans have been concocted to kick KTN’s Mohammed Ali out of his job. But the defiant investigative journalist isn’t going down without a fight.
Dennis Itumbi kicked Moha below the belt when he called for his resignation on grounds that his impartiality as a journalist had been compromised by his interest to vie for a political seat.
“Mine is a simple message, if you want to join politics, you are welcome to exercise your democratic right, but first leave the Newsroom. That is objectivity.some of us did exactly that.” Itumbi posted.
Media Council of Kenya seconded Itumbi’s calls going on to instruct all media houses to take action on journalists who have expressed interest to join politics.
“Media houses must let go of politicians in newsrooms, journalists and practitioners that have declared affiliation to political parties, movements, groupings or indicated their intentions to vie for elective positions in 2017,” Media Council of Kenya Board chairman Charles Kerich said while addressing the media during a press conference.
Mohammed Ali has since hit back at Itumbi and all those calling for his resignation; he says he won’t be silenced even if he’s fired.
“Dennis Itumbi I know Jubilee Government is pushing for my sacking and few other Journalist who are fighting for Kenyans by exposing the rot. I know what you are afraid of. You guys are planning to silence me from asking more questions. You are afraid of my presence in the media come 2017. I want to make it clear to you that even if I’m fired today I WILL NOT MISS JOURNALISM BUT JOURNALISM WILL MISS ME. I also want to assure you that I’M GAME AND I WILL BE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHTS OF KENYANS. I will be your worst nightmare with your small gods. You dont even respect the man you are working for. You don’t have faith in him. Itumbi I will respond to your PR and hatred very soon.” Mohammed Ali posted.
