Speaking on winning the award, Njuguna says YouTube has enabled him to be a content producer without being under anyone anymore.<\/p>\n

“That award means that people are watching YouTube content, unlike earlier on, when you had to be under a production house for people to view your content, which I think was limiting young people to express freely. Young people out there have everything it takes to give content on YouTube. It was even a plus to me especially to get the award from my former boss Abel Mutua. That means you can be a content producer and you don’t have to be under anyone,” Njuguna told Word Is.<\/p>\n
