Miguna Miguna has exposed the Standard Media Group which owns Spice FM for trying to intimidate him before interviewing him.
Miguna who was to grace Spice FM’s Monday morning breakfast show claimed that he was asked to sign an indemnity document just a minute before going on air.
He however did not agree to sign the document adding that the media house has never subjected its guests to such treatment nor has he encountered such during the times he had been interviewed previously.
“Azimio Council Member @MoiGideon and his @StandardKenya team at @SpiceFMKE tried to gag and force me to give them a blanket indemnity one minute before the interview started. Of course, I refused to sign this death warrant. The hosts did not even greet me. It was a silly setup,” he said.
“I’ve appeared on TV and radio for the past 30 years but not once has a media house – including @StandardKenya and@KTNNewsKE– asked me to sign a blanket indemnity form. @SpiceFMKEhas never asked any of its previous guests to sign the ridiculous form they tried to force on me!” he added.
The document shared by Miguna had seven conditions that he had to adhere to by signing it and he had a big issue with the fifth condition which stated, “I hereby release, discharge and agree to fully indemnify the company its legal representatives and assigns, from all claims, causes of action, and liability of any kind, now known or unknown, in law or equity arising out of the interview, including without limitations to claims of defamation, invasion of privacy violation of one’s private/sensitive data.”
