Anita Nderu was given ‘Hits not Homework’ job despite competition to choose host: “I had no idea”

Former Capital FM presenter Anita Nderu was in the middle of controversy several years ago after being picked as the new host of the radio’s show ‘Hits not Homework’.

Capital had conducted a competition in an effort to pick who will take over the show following the exit of Amina Abdi. Surprisingly, the station chose several presenters to fill in the position only later on to replace them with Anita.

In an interview with True Love, Anita Said that she was just informed that she has been moved to the position by the management.

“I was at the gym when I was called into a meeting at the office. I had no idea what it was about. The communication I was given was that I had been moved from the News department effective the end of that week and appointed as a co-host on ‘Hits not Homework,” she told True Love Magazine.

Judged

Anita was among the judges in the competition but never thought she might end up hosting the show.

“The same way any employee of any organization can be informed by their boss that their department has been changed is what happened to me,” she explained.
