Radio Host  Njogu Wa Njoroge Fired Days after Joining UDA

Njogu Wa Njoroge revealed to a source privy to this publication that he was sacked from his official duties via a phone call from the station's management.

"I received a phone call from the Programs Controller, who asked me not to report to work, permanently," Njoroge revealed.

He however linked his dismissal from work with his political move where he joined UDA even though he had planned to render his resignation ahead of the February 9 deadline.

"It is because of my affiliations, nothing else. I would have resigned to go and concentrate on politics," he stated.

The media personality was unveiled at DP Ruto's office in Karen and was welcomed by UDA members in a ceremonial way.
