Parliamentary Broadcasting Unit
Parliamentary Broadcasting Unit (PBU) is a Kenyan terrestrial television network that was created in 2009 by the Parliament of Kenya with the assistance of the USAID with an aim to open up the democratic space.[3] The PBU network televises live proceedings of both houses of parliament. The PBU network includes two television channels: Bunge TV, which broadcasts live sessions of the National Assembly, and Senate TV, which broadcasts live sessions of the Senate. Both channels are available on the Signet terrestrial free-to-air platform.
