The government has announced plans to address challenges that have been bedevilling the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) for years now, including debts.
The ICT ministry noted that the state broadcaster is facing a myriad of challenges that have affected its operations. Broadcasting and Telecommunications PS Stephen Isaboke said the government will soon address the media house's historical debts, outdated infrastructure, legal challenges, and unresolved land ownership issues the media house has been struggling with. "During the engagement, KBC Managing Director, Agnes Kalekye Nguna, presented a candid overview of the challenges facing the corporation, including outdated infrastructure, protracted legal battles, historical debts, and unresolved land ownership issues," the PS said after a meeting with the KBC's senior management on Tuesday, June 10.
