]]> Shaka Ssali, a re-known Ugandan Journalist and talk show presenter of Focus on Africa on the Voice of America TV and radio has been denied a chance to appear on a radio and TV station in the Eastern  town of Mbale Uganda.

Ssali who is on a country wide tour organized by the US embassy was supposed to be hosted on Step Radio and TV to discuss issues concerning freedom of the press.

According to the Step Radio’s operations manage Jonathan Tusubira, the station received a call from the Resident district commission Paul Nangoli not to host Sali.

Nangoli says he received orders from Kampala (the central government) not to allow Shaka Ssali, often a government critic on air in Mbale.
