At the same time, the national government has defended its decision to deny media houses advertising, saying it costs a lot yet there are no returns. At the Fourth Annual Devolution Conference in Naivasha, Nakuru County, governors reviewed headlines of daily publications since the inception of devolution and complained that nothing positive had been highlighted. But in a quick rejoinder, National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) chairman Francis ole Kaparo, Association of Media Women in Media (AMWIK) Rose Lukalo-Owino and Media Council of Kenya (MCK) chairman Charles Kerich, differed with the governors, saying philanthropic coverage would only run the media industry out of business. Kaparo told off governors over media coverage.
