This Is Why DJ Mo Was Arrested!

Yesterday, TV personality and popular gospel DJ was arrested for allegedly "not bribing police officers" who stopped him on the Naivasha-Nairobi highway.

At the time of the incident, DJ Mo was with his wife and Mr Seed who documented the arrest with their smart phones.

DJ Mo posted the drama on his Facebook page: "Jana I appreciated the words of David in 2 Samuel 24:14 when he said it is best to fall into the hands of the Lord because He is all merciful rather than fall into the hands of man whose mercies run low.

"By the way this happened along the Naivasha - Nairobi highway after I refused to pay a bribe, allegedly driving a car with tinted windows, and when I agreed to go to the police station I declined the officer riding in my car since there's no law that states that. He he, my wife is good in taking photos. And I believe this has been happening to many motorists along this highway. I think something should be done as soon as possible."

The musician was later released after paying a fine of Sh10,000.

Lawyer Philip Murgor Is New Chairman of WildlifeDirect Kenya

The Board of Directors of WildlifeDirect is happy to announce the appointment of Philip Murgor as the new Chairman of the Board of WildlifeDirect Kenya.

Murgor's appointment was made at a board meeting held at the Amboseli National Park in early November 2014. The international board was in Kenya to mark the first anniversary of WildlifeDirect's flagship campaign, Hands Off Our Elephants.

WildlifeDirect is committed and dedicated to changing laws and people's behaviour and attitudes related to wildlife crime in Kenya and throughout Africa.

In the last year, WildlifeDirect, through its Hands Off Our Elephants campaign, was in the forefront in championing the passing into law of the Wildlife Conservation and Management Act 2013.

Currently, the organisation is conducting a study into the enforce-ability of the new law in relation to wildlife trafficking crimes in Kenya. Philip Murgor's contribution towards this end will not only be felt in Kenya but across the entire African continent where the Hands Off our Elephants campaign will go.

Other members of the Kenyan board include development expert Irungu Houghton and Ali Daud Mohamed, the Climate Change Advisor in the office of the Deputy President.

The First Lady Margaret Kenyatta is the patron of the Hands Off Our Elephants campaign, launched to advocate for the protection of remaining elephant populations.
