Kenya Films and Classification Board boss Ezekiel Mutua has said public service vehicles with screens, will now be required to apply for license from the board.
This, he said is aimed at ensuring that matatus adhere to set rules regarding airing of video content in public.
Speaking in Masii, Mutua said many PSV vehicles with screens have been playing dirty videos.
"We want to announce here in Masii today that any PSV Matatu that has a screen must obtain a license to show any content. The matatu industry is not a broadcasting sector, and therefore those who have mounted screens in their cars, and showing pornography when parents and children are using public transport they are undermining our values," said Mutua.
He urged the police to help KFCB ensure that these screens are removed from vehicles that have not obtained a license from the board.
Dr Mutua also urged the police to ensure that no video den operates without a license.
"We found that there were damning results that showed our youths are influenced by what they see in music. We have to ensure Matatus with screens obtain a license or remove the screens. In a bid to clean the airwaves, we are asking for enforcement help from the police," he said.
Mutua spoke during the launch of the unity policing program on Thursday.
