Social media is a popular communication tool used by many Kenyans accessible to the internet. A red flag had been raised that certain individuals are using the medium to incite and propagate violence along tribal lines.
The NCIC has marked several individuals using the platform to spew hatespeech. Amongst top in the list is one 'pan African ' David MATSANGA a Ugandan fugitive who has been in the country serving unknown agenda.
Looks like Matsanga has been having plenty of free times to his hands and since been a resident of social media posts after posts filled with his custom bitterness, something that has now been read as hate speech putting him under criminal investigation of propagating war.
The National Steering Committee on Media Monitoring led by Chair Mary Ombara cautioned that unless drastic steps are taken now , the negative debate on social media which focuses on the political lineation and relationships of three main ethnic groups might spark chaos in the country.
The war flame bloggers red flagged by the committee includes;
1.John Mutuku
2.Abdul Majid Mohamed
3.Joseph Mwangi
4.Wycliff Ojijo
5.Esther Wanjala
6.Simon Mbugua
7.Tonny Lijodi
