Slap in the face for Kenya's media

Kenya's first lady Lucy Kibaki slapped an official across the face in front of hundreds of guests and journalists at a public event on Wednesday. But there will be no film of this undiplomatic incident - because security officials confiscated the cameras of all journalists covering the event. According to local media, she slapped the master of ceremonies after he mistakenly introduced Ms Kibaki as "Wambui," who is widely believed to be her husband's second wife. "Taking our film is a serious violation of our freedom of press," said Joseph Odindo, managing editor of Kenya's Daily Nation. (Via ABC)
