Why Capital FM Will Not Be Shut Down

Date:

Capital  FM issued a statement following an announcement that it was one of the stations whose license has been revoked by CA.

The station’s Group Chairperson Mary-Anne Kirubi-Musangi has however assured loyal listeners, advertisers and other stakeholders, that the station’s operations will go on as normal including programming, advertisements and promotions.

“Capital FM is committed to continue meeting its obligations to the service of this country like it has always done through offering opportunities, developing talent, pushing for a sustainable agenda and broadcasting within the law,” Musangi said in a statement.

According to Musangi, the issue with CA was sorted following a meeting with the officials at the authority.

“After meeting with the Communications Authority, we can confidently assure all our business partners, clients and listeners that Capital FM is fully compliant, and we look forward to strengthen this relationship even further,” she added.

On Wednesday December 22, CAs Director General Ezra Chiloba, in a statement, said that a number of TV stations and radio stations would have their licences revoked after the broadcasters failed to comply with respective license offers within the offer period as prescribed by the Authority and in accordance with the Kenya Information and Communications Act, 1998.
