Popular TV presenter Larry Madowo has quit the Nation media Group. Madowo, who until recently was the host of the popular The Trend show announced his departure on Facebook.
He posted:
“I leave NTV Kenya as I came: humbled & grateful. ‬The job was one of the great honours of my life. Thanks to everyone who watched, and to Nation for the privilege of the opportunity. I’m proud of my amazing colleagues & everything we accomplished. Farewell, my friends. ‬Stay woke”‬
Word on the street says that Madowo has gone through a series of difficulties that led to his fall-out with the NMG management.
A local media blog recently published a n exchange between Madowo and the then NMG chief executive officer Joe Muganda at a staff meeting called to announce plans for a second restructuring programme.
It further reported that Madowo had been muzzled by Tom Mshindi who is a senior manager at the media house.
Bizna Kenya, though, cannot vouch for the authenticity of these reports.
Madowo becomes the latest of in a number of senior employees who have been leaving the biggest media house in East and Central Africa.
The other high ranking employees to have quit is Linus Kaikai who fell out with the management over the live streaming of the mock swearing in ceremony of opposition leader Raila Odinga on January 30.
