After The President of the Republic of Kenya urged employers not to fire employees, K24, A Kenyatta company becomes the 1st media house to fire 90% of its employees reasons....redundancy. Really? No Media work? I think Anne Kiguta is the only one left with a job ofcourse to drive a certain political agenda. The media space is changing, NEWS is not big business anymore. Kenyans are now obsessed with vlogers on Youtube and advertisers are in turn seeing value in throwing money to them rather than spending top shilling* on old boring news channel. If you are not creating content, make sure you have money to buy good quality content to survive. I for one only watched K24 on Friday's to see what Betty Kyallo had. But she left and my eyes are now on Youtube and Netflix. Adapt or perish!!! TV in Kenya is very boring. Even TZ TV beats us. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

The employees were asked to take a pay-out until the situation improves but with their big egos they declined. Somebody even ill-advised them to go to court to challenge that decision. The courts, in their usual wisdom, ruled in the employees favour. SASA MULITAKA NIFANYE NINI JAMENI? On this one, am afraid the employees are to blame.

Plus the owner doesn't create content, it is the employees to do that. They were not creative and lacked innovation, Covid just presented an opportunity for the redundancies. Pole kwao!!!

What paycut have you taken Queen and how long is that going to last? Did you have that provision in your contract? Angela, are you doing above and beyond of what you agreed with your employer? Was Jalango or Betty not creating content for media max? I mean many tuned in to watch and listen to Betty and Jalas why should they get less of their pay yet they were the ones bringing in viewers and listeners? And do presenters and fundi wa mitambo source for marketing opportunities? In other countries where employers are requiring an employee to take a pay cut, the govt is compensating the employees...any plans for this republic to do the same? Ama nikozoea kunyanyaswa tu? Dah! Its time Atwoli took a rest Wacheni za ovyo. K24 was trying to take advantage of these people, if anything people are watching more. The board should have fired itself first.

Have you ever given someone a duty then in the middle of it you pay him/her down? What about your contracts, have you negotiated down your payments? Betty and Jalas are doing fine they are taking YouTube by storm working for themselves actually am about to watch Oscar Sudi on Jalas right now. K24 will go under stay tuned "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

C-19 being a pandemic is a Force Majeure event and therefore all the parties are discharged from their contractual obligations.
