President Uhuru Kenyatta has directed changes to the collection structures to the Content Service Providers - Skiza and Viusasa. "The current sector structure which comprises content service providers who work with digital platforms such as Skiza and Viusasa will be eliminated. The Kenya Copyright Board with the assistance of the Ministry of ICT, has already reviewed and agreed on the tariffs for 2020. The President further directed the Ministry of ICT to remove conditions requiring digital platforms to only work through licensed content providers. "This will enable musicians to work directly with platforms such as Skiza," he said.
