EXCLUSIVE: Belinda Obura And Tom Mboya Chased Away From K24

Barely two years after they unceremoniously left Citizen TV for K24, the two veteran TV presenters are no longer at the Media Max-owned TV station.

Belinda Obura and Tom Mboya have been off air for a while and no, they are not on leave. The two are said to have been chased away from K24.

The two are among the many journalists who were poached from other media houses and lured with heavy perks, only for them to become jobless two years after leaving Citizen TV.

A close and reliable source has revealed to Ghafla! Kenya that Belindah and Mboya were shown the door after failing to live up to the expectations.

The two are said to have performed dismally, prompting the station’s management to relieve them of their duties and explore other options.

Belinda is said to have left late last year while Tom is serving his last month, which is this March.

Ghafla Kenya made efforts to reach them for comment through phone calls but they all proved futile as our calls went unanswered.

We also sort to know from one of the journalists who works at the station but he quickly hang up on us at the mention of the two, citing that he was busy covering the release of last year’s KCSE results.

Belinda and Mboya had worked as a pair at Citizen before moving to K24 where they were paired together again.
