Wednesday, February 14, 2014 –Citizen Tv-owned by Royal Media Services has, since last year, been losing key journalists who are joining plum State roles.
First to start leaving Citizen Tv was Hussein Mohamed who who resigned, stayed home for about a year then was taken by President William Ruto during his campaigns and when Kenya Kwanza won power, Hussein was officially appointed Statehouse spokesperson replacing Kanze Dena who also left Citizen earlier to join Uhuru Kenyatta’s Jubilee government.
This was quickly followed by the exit of Francis Gachuri who, after Ruto won ofice, he was called to join top communication team in the Ministry of Interior.
And now, news about reporter-per-excellent, Jane Chemutai Goin, emerged that she was currently serving her last days with Citizen Tv station.
The seasoned political reporter is already serving her month-long notice and she is set to leave by March this year.
Media was reliably told that Goin is slated to work at the office of the National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula in the capacity of principal media relations officer.
Equally, Citizen Tv’s crime and investigative journalist Hassan Mugambi is also set to leave Royal Media Services RMS as his time to join Ministry of Defence nears.
This website has since established further that the journalist is currently serving notice ahead of his formal departure from the RMS.
The news reporter-cum-anchor will assume the role of communication advisor at Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale’s office.
