From Shaking Hands to Confident Bylines: My Transformative Journey at Nation Media Group

Image
📰✨ Last month, May 2025, marked the culmination of a chapter from this great historic book of mine that I'm writing... I'm not used to such kind of long posts but I'm going to try today 'cause this journey deserves it! 🙈 When I first walked through the doors of Nation Media Group in February 2025, I carried with me years of preparation, passion for journalism, and a determination to make the most of this opportunity. As a graduate who has completed my Bachelor's in Journalism and Mass Communication with a focus on Electronic Media at Daystar University and is awaiting graduation in November 2025, I was finally stepping into one of East Africa's most prestigious media houses. The Reality Check: Workplace Dynamics Ain't for the Faint-Hearted The small small madharaus (the kawaida one mnakuanga mmewekea interns) - yes wewe, I see you! 👀 Those inward cries and wanting to burst into tears.  These hardships found in most workplaces have hardened me TWICE as muc...

CONFESSION TIME - NI BAHATI TENA.

The just concluded week has ended on a 'high' where Kenyan content creator and upcoming rapper, Diana Bahati, found herself trending on Twitter from her own YouTube video; which she recorded some two years ago.

As people would say; 'Ogopa KOT (Fear KOT.) KOT is an abbreviation of Kenyans On Twitter. This is the same platform that was able to retrieve Diana Marua's dirty secrets; where she confessed to be dating older married men, now known as sponsors, for money in order to maintain her expensive lifestyle.

Diana Marua is a mother of five, one being her step-daughter, and a wife to reknown Kenyan musician Kevin Kioko popularly known as Bahati. She is now popularly know as 'Diana B', her stage name, since she decided to venture into music, precisely rapping.



Diana Marua hopped onto social media to defend her 'dark' past where Bahati, her husband, was also seen defending his wife about it.

In a long post on her Instagram page, she captioned the reasons why she recorded that video and why she professed to be dating older married men. Her main reason being to inspire the ladies out there, especially the young ladies who are not certain what direction to take in their lives.

“I shared my story to testify that Jesus can make every woman’s wish come true. It pains me every time I see our young women lose hope and bury their dreams as society makes it look so impossible, but if that was Diana 10 years ago and today, I am a proud mother of 5, a wife...TO THE WOMAN READING THIS DO NOT GIVE UP, WAKE UP AND FOGHT FOR YOUR DREAM- YOUR TIME IS COMING!!!" concluded Diana, on her long Instagram post.

“This is my wife, the one that God chose for me. I love you because you are so genuine, and I am happy that you don’t pretend to look perfect! Keep being true to yourself and to God; that is the only way you will inspire more and more women out here. Babe, I love you, and the doings of the Lord in your life have just started. Be prosperous in Jesus’ name. I love you, my love,” said Bahati, as he defended his wife.


Love is definitely a beautiful thing😍 for a spouse to publicly defend their partner, hope it finds you if hasn't yet😉💓

Diana Bahati had recorded that video two years ago on her YouTube channel after her husband Bahati surprised her with a brand new Mercedes Benz..

    Think it wasn't necessary with the confession now that she's already married. Though these people never tire with the clout chase. Good piece girl👏👏

Kenya's Leadership Shocker: Kindiki Takes Deputy President Role in Mid-Term Power Shift!

Image
It was a momentous moment for Kenyan politics: Professor Kithure Kindiki took the oath of office, earlier today at KICC Nairobi, and became the Deputy President of the country, going down in history as one of the few officials to assume such a high office before the end of an electoral term. Far from the usual five-year election cycle, this presents a new dawn in Kenya's political landscape, testing the stability of governance structures in the country. The swearing-in of Kindiki is significant, not only because transitions at the executive level at mid-term periods are rare but also for what it represents: adaptability in governance amidst an evolving political climate.  Conventionally, a deputy president should serve a full term with the president except in circumstances beyond their control. This appointment in the middle of the cycle has, however, driven the point home that leadership changes can occur through constitutional processes and not necessarily through electoral cycle...

The Return of Donald Trump: A Portrait of Power and Defiance.

Image
On January 20, 2025, the world witnessed an extraordinary moment as Donald J. Trump was inaugurated once again, marking an unprecedented return to the highest office in the United States. His 2025 inauguration was not merely a political event; it was a statement, a defiant assertion of resilience, grit, and unyielding ambition.  Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance at the 2025 inauguration ceremony. Against the backdrop of history, the official portrait unveiled shortly before the ceremony added to the gravitas of the day. More than just a picture, it was a manifesto - an image that echoed Trump’s journey and the battles he had fought. In this new official portrait, Trump’s piercing gaze seems to cut through the noise of political opposition and the chaos of the years that preceded his return. His scowl, purposeful and commanding, speaks to a man hardened by adversity, unafraid to confront the challenges that lie ahead.  Dressed in a deep blue suit with a flag pin, he is...

WHAT NEXT FOR THE PEOPLE OF MERU?

Image
Meru County, nestled on the eastern slopes of Mount Kenya, has long been a region of vibrant political activity. Known for its diverse culture, rich agricultural lands, and strategic importance, Meru is now becoming equally known for its political drama. The past months have seen Meru being a hotbed of political intrigue, power play, and even an attempted ouster of its governor. But what is really happening in Meru, and why is it so significant? The Political Landscape of Meru Meru's politics have always been colorful, characterized by a mix of traditional leadership structures and modern political dynamics. Historically, the region has been governed by a blend of community elders, known as the Njuri Ncheke, and elected officials. This unique interplay has often created a delicate balance between respecting traditional governance and embracing the democratic process. However, in the past few years, this balance has been disrupted. The county has experienced rising political tension...
