Find Out Why Team Uhuru’s Cynthia Nyamai Was On CCTV.

I’ll get straight to it. It was evident that President Elect Uhuru Kenyatta had an awesome PR machinery. Ever wondered who was behind that? Among them was Ted Kwaka aka Big Ted, director of the The Main Event Company and Cynthia Nyamai. Girls run the world, Beyonce didn’t lie.

Now you probably wonder where she went after her high flying position as a news anchor. Ms Nyamai walked away from a seemingly lucrative job as a business journalist at Kenya Television Network (KTN). She, a 2011 best Diageo business journalist award of the year award winner, set up a fim that brings in between Sh250,000 and Sh3 million for every single project she handles. She told a local daily that. 

She clearly defines the term greener pastures, her public relations firm is eponymous, Cynthia Nyamai Communications. And that company, was at the helm of the spirited campaign that got Uhuru Kenyatta elected. Cynthia by the way, armed with her PR company, was single handedly responsible for seeing to it that James Mwangi, CEO of Equity bank won 2012 Forbes Africa Person of the Year award. Unstoppable doesn’t even come close to describing this woman.

Cynthia Nyamai Communications with branches in Nigeria and Dubai has a penchant for foreign investors seeking to sink capital in East Africa. Some of her first clients were Capital Partners of Nairobi Java House and Nakumatt holdings, who by the way called her for crisis management when one of the stores was burned to smouldering ashesIn one fell swoop, she moved from being just an anchor to handling one of the biggest would-be public relations disasters in Kenyan history. Her other monied clients Citibank, KenGen, Equity Bank, AAR Health Services, and Zuku.

Now back to the headline. This morning she tweeted that she was on air to let the world know that Kenya is a safe haven for businesses and investors. Could we be seeing the return of this belle to our TV screens? Only time will tell, after all, a leopard hardly changes its spots.
