Royal Media Services affiliate Citizen TV has
announced major editorial changes as the station
positions itself ahead of the next year's polls in
a move that will see former news anchors and
continuity show host make grand returns to the
screen.
Popular trending Power Breakfast show will
embrace new faces as the station ropes in
former Kiss TV news presenter and one time
Ebru TV’s Sugar and Spice show host Joy
Muthengi to replace Kirigo Ng’arua who has
since stamped her authority on Lunch time news.
Uduak Amimo,the Cheche show moderator and
Hussein Mohammed will now sit in for Anne
Kiguta who has taken her maternity leave. Uduak
moved to the Dennis Pritt based television in
2012 after her successful stint at BBC. She has
been lauded as one of the best political debate
moderators and is highly expected to bring in her
wealth of experience to the ever heated Opinion
Court debates every Thursday. Hussein
Mohammed moves to Sunday Live.
The station has also sought the services of Iran
based long time Swahili Editor Salim Swaleh to
beef up Nipashe Wikendi .Salim until last week
was the special analyst on African News and
editor at Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting
(IRIB) affiliate, Press TV. He is expected to take
over from the all time Citizen TV duo Lulu
Hassan and Kanze Dena.
Citizen TV came under fierce criticism after
sacking reporters Kendagor Obadiah and Eveline
Wambui in what many viewed as inside
politics.The two have since been replaced.
