He said press freedom is very important to uphold. But I keep telling us also, reminding us that your freedom also has to go with enormous responsibility. You can not allow purveyors of disinformation and fake news to occupy your space.
“I know that we have had some challenges, especially in the last couple of weeks concerning one journalist who has had some problems with the security agencies. That problem has been solved or is being solved. I’m being reminded by someone today that there’s another one. We are also working to ensure that one is also resolved,” Idris added.
