Ezekiel Mutua holds his fire back over 10 over 10 show

 

Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Dr Ezekiel Mutua has seemingly held his fire back over the 10 over 10 show.

In his recent remarks, Mutua says that he cannot do anything about the show and urged parents to monitor and regulate what their children are watching.

Mutua expressed his worry saying that he suspects that children are also part of the audience that watch the show and therefore parents should be responsible.

“There is nothing I can do about 10 over 10 the only concern is that I suspect that there are underage children.

It is the responsibility of parents to tell their children to go to sleep after ten but parents don’t know sometimes when Kenyans complain, you still have to show them that you noted there was nudity and bad language and the dancing was not appropriate . but tell your children to go sleep what were they doing at 10?” Mutua said.

Kenyans acted surprised saying that Mutua publicly stating that there is nothing he can do yet he is the moral police just did not add up.


Ezekiel Mutua’s statement comes days after he went hard on the 10 over 10 show saying that it is one of the shows that poses as an entertainment program yet it promotes immorality among the Kenyan youth.

Ezekiel Mutua gave his reasons saying that the show has for the longest time staged as  a show that airs music and entertainment yet most of the time it ends up rousing the youth sexually.

Linking it to the scary rate of teenage pregnancies, Mutua says that that the 10 over 10 show could be one of the contributing factors to the rot among Kenyan Youth.

Mutua also described the hosts and the artists who grace the show  as irresponsible. The 10 over 10 show is usually aired on Citizen TV every Friday from 10 pm.

Mutua added that it does not matter whether the show comes late in the night that does not make it right, and the fact that children are at home for the holidays makes it even worse.

Yet his recent remark is like a fire that has just been put out and  Kenyans are puzzled on what his exact point is.
