Speaking at a Kisumu hotel during a two-day journalist workshop Kiprono challenged writers to avoid writing materials praising terrorists attack.
"I am urging you to refrain from glorifying terror activities while reporting. This will help to avoid causing a state of anarchy in the country," said Kiprono.
He however, asked the state to avoid intruding in media reporting.
