DRAMA-AFRICA: 'PERSUADING A MAN, WITHOUT HITTING HIM ON THE HEAD'
2003
Overview
'Rainbow City' is just one of dozens of 'edutainment' soap operas being broadcast on African television and radio stations today. Others include 'Soul City' in South Africa, 'Twende na Wakati' (Let's Go with the Times) in Tanzania, 'Nshilakamona' (I Have Not Seen It) in Zambia and 'Mopani Junction' in Zimbabwe. \"Donors have driven, to a certain extent, the direction of the entertainment industry and that has had a very negative effect. Our writers are being asked to create stories specifically to meet the needs of the donor agencies,\" says Kimani Njogu, head scriptwriter for Kenya Broadcasting Corporation's long-running Kiswahili radio drama 'Ushikwapo, Shikamana' (If Assisted, Assist Yourself) and regional representative for PCI. Andrew Whaley of 'Mopani Junction' is one writer who has enjoyed having the chance to meet with donors at the summit. \"One tends to think of donors as being 'them out there' and the enemy and that we have to do what they say. But it's not quite true,\" he says.
