Passing a law that criminalizes filming without a license is a big step backwards, it pours cold water on private citizens' fight against corruption, brutality by authorities (cops & kanjo), poor service delivery in public facilities etc...
KFCB (read Ezekiel Mutua) doesn't want us to document things of public interest, doesn't want us to appreciate Kenya's beautiful landscape and its warm people... doesn't want us to highlight problems affecting mwananchi, for the lens is more powerful than the gun. The lens captures the truth and the Government seemingly wants wananchi to remain uninformed.
Nothing will stop us from filming with our phones - weddings, birthdays, office parties, street brawls etc. #DefyKFCB #DefyMutua

We as Kenyans deserve more support in expressing our creativity and not more barriers to progress. It's high we stood against bad governance.

YouTube isn't an employer. Its a free platform. Any income is taxable anyway. Registration as a filmmaker should be at a filmmaking union whose interests are the filmmakers healthcare and pricing of services, such as an actors, editors or producer's guild. Who is the beneficiary of tthe registration? To what end is the registration payment?

This is how most people have embraced technology positively . The previous day's complains were that we are not using tech well now that bloggers n content creators have embraced a positive outcome they want to control it .... No no no too much

It's time for the board to be headed by a creative who understands the challenges the industry faces instead of an over-zealous bureaucrat who knows nothing.

I hope we stop them from making ridiculous laws that affect the average Kenyan creative trying to make a mark on social media and YouTube.
