  • Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya*
    Journalism and Mass Communication, ISSN 2160-6579 D July 2012, Vol. 2, No. 7, 717-734 DAVID PUBLISHING Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya* Kioko Ireri Indiana University, Bloomington, USA This research investigates variables that predicted news coverage of 212 members of parliament (MPs) in Kenya by four national newspapers in 2009. The 10 variables examined are: ordinary MP, cabinet minister, powerful ministry, parliamentary committee chairmanship, seniority, big tribe identity, major party affiliation, presidential ambition, commenting on contentious issues, and criticizing government. Findings indicate that commenting on contentious issues, criticizing government, cabinet minister, ordinary MP, powerful ministry, and seniority significantly predicted visibility of the parliamentarians in newspaper news. However, a multiple regression analysis shows that the strongest predictors are commenting on contentious issues, cabinet minister, criticizing government, and big tribe identity. While commenting on controversial issues was the strongest predictor, major party identification and committee leadership were found not to predict MPs’ visibility. Keywords: Kenya, members of parliament (MPs), newspapers, newspaper visibility, politicians, visibility, visibility predictor Introduction Today, the mass media have become important platforms for the interaction of elected representatives and constituents. Through the mass media, citizens learn what their leaders are doing for them and the nation. Similarly, politicians use the media to make their agendas known to people. It is, thus, rare to come across elected leaders ignorant about the importance of registering their views, thoughts, or activities in the news media. In Kenya, members of parliament have not hesitated to exploit the power of the mass media to its fullest in their re-election bids and in other agendas beneficial to them.

  • Press Release – People's Shujaaz Awards 2018 Edition
    Press Release – People’s Shujaaz Awards 2018 Edition Winners Unveiled Nairobi, 11th December 2018 – We are proud to reveal the names of Members of Parliament who were voted by Wanjiku as People’s Shujaaz, 2018 edition. With a lot of bad news that hits us every day, it’s easy to get cynical and MPs become easy targets as the representatives of the people. In such an atmosphere, it is possible to fail to recognize hardworking MPs who are keen on issues affecting the least in the society. To that end, People Shujaaz Awards is aimed at helping shine a light on some of these Parliamentarians who champion public interest issues on the floor of the House. Unlike the previous Awards, this year’s People Shujaaz Awards, 2018 edition attracted only six categories. Kenyans therefore spent the last ten days voting for their favorite MPs in these categories as follows: Category 1: Wanjiku’s Best Representative – Health – Hon. Rose Museo Mumo. The Woman Representative for Makueni County moved a motion on establishment of programmes and interventions to encourage uptake of counselling services. Having expressed concern that the country’s mental health policy estimates show that about 25% and 40% of outpatients and inpatients suffer mental illness, respectively, she further went on to make a strong case for some of the reasons behind this spike in mental illness and made a plea for Parliament to urge the government to immediately establish programmes and interventions to encourage uptake of counselling services among individuals, families and communities to mitigate effects of mental disorders.
