Citizen Tv Kiswahili news anchor Swaleh Mdoe is in soup over the content of his popular series Tafakari ya Babu. This is after the presenter made some remarks that that did not sit in well with the station.
The episode which was to air on May 24 was pulled down due to fears over the remarks Mdoe had made. “Tafakari ya Babu that you will never see. On Monday, May 24, I stated some remarks that did not sit well with a few people. I would like to clarify that the segment was not in reference to a particular person but a narration of a true story,” Mdoe said. “However, It’s been pulled down. It’s normally stated that you are likely involved in something if it irritates you.”

The series has emerged as controversial with viewers occasionally rebuking the presenter and the leadership at Citizen. “I don’t understand how you let Swaleh spew rubbish always on Tafakari ya babu, do you guys listen to him? Speaking of “ladies body parts” and I have heard that for the second time today. We need clean content, this guy should style up,” one viewer was quoted as saying.
