John Sibi Okumu Joining Kiss TV
Renowned journalist and thespian John Sibi Okumu, is set to join the Radio Africa Group as from next month according to the Jackal News. Mwalimu as he is commonly referred to (as he spent more than 25 years in that profession.), will join the Radio Africa Group TV as it re-launches.
“The re-launch is next month and with it Radio Africa Group will unveil John Sibi Okumu. There is no denying that many Kenyans positively identify with him on several fronts,” a source explained to the Jackal News. This news comes barely a month after Kenyans massively favoured him for the post of the moderator for the upcoming presidential debate.
As a journalist, Okumu used to host a popular TV program, Summit aired on KTN in which he interviewed Kenyan politicians. He is also acknowledged not just at home but also internationally for his role in The Constant Gardener movie. But most people remember him from the Zain Africa Challenge contest where he was the presenter.
