Ken Mijungu Joins Radio 47

Renowned Kenyan journalist, lawyer, and businessman Ken Mijungu has joined Radio 47, marking a new chapter in his illustrious media career. Mijungu’s move comes after his departure from KTN News in February 2025, where he served as a news anchor and current affairs host for four years.

Mijungu brings over a decade of experience to Radio 47, having worked at some of Kenya’s leading media houses. His career began with reporting experience at CCTV Africa, followed by a stint at MediaMax Network Ltd. He then spent several years at Nation Media Group (NTV), where he rose to become a Senior Reporter and hosted “Sidebar,” a popular political talk show featuring discussions with prominent figures.

During his time at KTN News, Mijungu was a prominent figure in political reporting and analysis, though specific shows he hosted there are not widely documented. His departure from KTN earlier this year left many speculating about his next move.

Beyond journalism, Mijungu is a qualified lawyer, holding a law degree from Moi University. He is also a businessman, owning and running a successful car hire business. His diverse background and experience in law and business are expected to bring a unique perspective to his work at Radio 47.

Mijungu is known for his extensive travels, having covered major international news events in approximately 56 countries. He is also recognized for his impeccable sense of style, reportedly owning a vast collection of suits and neckties.
