The outspoken Madowo mockingly indicated on his Twitter handle that the embarrassing firing and rehiring of the directors had allowed them to know who is in-charge at the Presidentโ€™s media office.

According to deputy chief of staff Nzioka Waita, State House admitted that the unit had experienced challenges but would remain in place.

Madowoโ€™s remarks, however, were not taken kindly by Mr Itumbiย who criticised the Trendโ€™sย host for making โ€˜baselessโ€™ comments on the issue.

The news anchor had alsoย mentioned that the directors would not be making appearances on television interviews to speak on behalf of the presidency.
