Kenyan activist Boniface Mwangi has publicly accused comedian Eddie Butita and his media company, SPM Buzz, of censoring an interview to appease political figures.
Mwangi claims that Butita deliberately “killed” a fiery interview that was set to air on SPM Buzz following complaints from Lang’ata MP Jalang’o.
In a recent revelation, Mwangi explained that during the interview, he had urged Jalang’o and other Members of Parliament not to be manipulated by President William Ruto.
This bold statement reportedly stirred discomfort, leading Jalang’o to lodge a complaint with Butita. What followed, according to Mwangi, was an act of censorship driven by political influence.
