On the contrary, we should feature the official reaction of government agencies and law enforcement authorities. Trade unionists should engage the relevant Government institutions such as the Department of Labour to resolve the issues,\u201d Jeng stated in a memo after the Transport Union announced a nationwide strike over fuel prices and bridge toll fees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe GPU found this directive to be illegal as it is inconsistent with the provisions of the 1997 Constitution,\u201d GPU President, Muhammed S. Bah, said. \u201cWe are therefore calling on the Director General of GRTS to rescind this directive with immediate effect and create space for divergent views in programmes of both the state radio and television.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Section 25(a) of the Constitution provides that \u201cevery person shall have the right to freedom of speech and expression which shall include freedom of the press and the media\u201d. Also, section 208 of the Constitution further provides that \u201call State-owned newspapers, journals, radio and television shall afford fair opportunities and facilities for the presentation of divergent views and dissenting opinions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The obligation to afford fair opportunities and facilities for the presentation of divergent views and opinion extends to the right of all Trade Unions or organisers of industrial actions (strikes) to be afforded media coverage.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, sections 107 and 137 of the Labour Act, 2007 provides for the rights of workers to form trade unions and to undertake industrial actions, if they so wish.<\/p>\n<p>Section 107 states that \u201cworkers and employers have the right to establish and join workers\u2019 and employers\u2019 organisations of their choice in accordance with the Constitution and laws of The Gambia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Section 137 provides that \u201cit is lawful for one or more persons, acting on their own behalf or on behalf of a trade union or of an individual employer in contemplation or furtherance of a trade dispute, to assemble-<\/p>\n<p><b>At or near their own place of employment; or<\/b><br \/>\n<b>If the persons are officials of the registered trade union; at or near the place of employment of employees whom they represent,<\/b><br \/>\n<b>If they so assemble for the purpose of peacefully persuading a person to work or abstain from working or to communicate information.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The directive is also a violation of the General Principles of the Cherno Jallow Charter of Ethics for Journalists on \u201cpublic interest and the social responsibility\u201d of journalists and the media.<\/p>\n<p>The Charter provides that journalists and media houses \u201cshall uphold the public\u2019s right to fair, accurate, balanced information of issues and events of public interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In light of the above, we are also urging the Minister of Information, Lamin Queen Jammeh, to initiate and work closely with relevant stakeholders to implement recommendations by the Truth Commission to transform GRTS into an editorially-independent public service broadcaster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government must keep its promise to task the Ministry of Information to work with GRTS [and relevant stakeholders] to fulfill the broadcaster\u2019s constitutional mandate by providing divergent views on national issues, including workers\u2019 strikes,\u201d GPU Secretary General, Modou S. Joof, said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reform of GRTS is necessary, and should be treated as a top priority, to break from an unacceptable past of censoring critical voices on national issues, including those of striking workers and the opposition. This is necessary to ensure government accountability and to create the democratic space needed for freedom of expression to thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we note that the Truth Commission\u2019s recommendations are in line with the Declaration of Principles of Freedom of Expression in Africa that was adopted by the African Commission in Banjul in 2002.<\/p>\n<p>As per the declaration, State and government-controlled broadcasters should be transformed into public service broadcasters, accountable to the public through the legislature rather than the government, in accordance with the following principles:<\/p>\n<p><b>public broadcasters should be governed by a board which is protected against interference, particularly of a political or economic nature;<\/b><br \/>\n<b>the editorial independence of public service broadcasters should be guaranteed;<\/b><br \/>\n<b>public broadcasters should be adequately funded in a manner that protects them from arbitrary interference with their budgets;<\/b><br \/>\n<b>public broadcasters should strive to ensure that their transmission system covers the whole territory of the country; and<\/b><br \/>\n<b>the public service ambit of public broadcasters should be clearly defined and include an obligation to ensure that the public receive adequate, politically balanced information, particularly during election periods.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
