Janet Chapia, Chris Thairu And Anders Ihachi Among The Big Names Sacked By Mediamax In New Restructuring Process

The guys at Mediamax have got the skill of firing down to an art. Issue a notice today and tomorrow have heads rolling including top personnel with absolutely no chills.

No joke, part of the letter handed to those shone the door read “the position has been abolished in restructuring thus rendered redundant’. Cold as ice no feelings  and just like that top heads went rolling including senior newspaper editors and top reporters.

Among those who have been shown the door include senior business reporter Janet Chapia, business editor Solomon Karimi, Chris Thairu, Dancun Khaemba and Anders Ihachi. The People Daily has also lost a number of top staff including political editor Eric Nyakagwa, writer Kamau Ng’otho, Millicent Muthoni, Robert Onsare and Rose Wanjiku and Kamau Ngotho.

Sports reporter Geoffrey Wachira is another that also was shown the door.

Such are the pains that accompany working in the media. We can only wish those affected success in their future endeavors.
