“I am aware that a
panel is working on it (the video). The panel was set up soon after the video
was released few weeks ago. When our attention was drawn to it, we viewed it
and we discovered that it was improper. There is no moral lesson in it and he
was just advertising drug trafficking.
"In the video, he exchanged a brief case supposedly containing narcotics for dollars. He was displaying affluence in the video. If it (the plot) had climaxed in an arrest and possible detention, we would have congratulated him for partnering with us. But the way he portrayed drug trafficking in the video was a means to an end, which the end is a life of affluence which we disagree with.” he said.

“We are looking at the issue
holistically. We believe that there should be a body that was supposed to
censor videos before they go out. Those are the things we want to investigate
and verify. Was the video submitted for approval? If it was submitted, why was
it approved, with such content?” he concluded
