Message from British Foreign Secretary on Suspension of The Citizen.

The UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt has said, he is very concerned to hear that The Citizen newspaper in Tanzania has been suspended for 7 days. He said media freedom is the lifeblood of any democracy and why Canada and British will co-hosting a media freedom conference in July.

While addressing members of the House of Commons in October 2018 about the murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi, the Foreign Secretary named the defence of media freedom as his signature policy and promised to confront countries that doesn't respect Media freedom and help to impose a “diplomatic price”.

"I am placing the resources of foreign office behind the cause of media freedom. This campaign will be marked by a major international conference on media freedom that I will host in London in July 2019." Jeremy Said.

His statement came after the Tanzanian authorities suspended the newspaper for seven days, accusing it of spreading false information about the devaluation of the Tanzanian shilling.

Uovu unatakiwa ukemewe kama ulivyo, hatuwezi kuacha kukemea uovu eti kwa sababu kuna uovu mwingine ulitendwa, tutakuwa tunaishi dunia ya namna gani sasa.

Eti mama aache kumkanya mtoto kuacha umalaya eti kisa na yeye alipokuwa binti alifanya hayo.

NI sahihi! Tunachopinga ni kupiga makofi eti waingereza wamelaani. Hata laama hutolewa na mtu anayestahili. Siyo kila mtu ashangiliwe.
