Veteran journalist and talk show host Jeff Koinange made shocking revelations yesterday on live television during his talk show JKLive.
He expressed shock that trees were being cut down by loggers with impunity even after a ban was imposed on illegal logging.
''The deputy president put a ban on logging. Trees are being cut left, right and centre ouside my house in Kitusuru. The machines are going on day in, day out, cutting down trees. Imagine what is going on in the Mau,'' Jeff Koinange said.
Koinange's disconcerting words come in the wake of an animated public debate on the environmental impact of logging and charcoal burning.
Environmental experts have sounded a warning that if illegal logging is not tamed, the country will be plunged into an environmental catastrophe.
