In this segment, Times Digital Kenya will be discussing some of the little details of Christine Ojiambo and her journey in the media industry.
Christine Ojiambo, the news anchor
Her journey at the Royal Media radio station began two decades ago, when she was very young and ambitious.
The seemingly hardworking Christine Ojiambo was then given the responsibility to broadcast Swahili news, where she competed with other media heavyweights, including Lincon Njogu and Josphat Odipo, among others.
Christine was pushed to her limits thanks to the stiff competition from the male news anchors at Radio Citizen.
Those who closely follow Radio Citizen’s briefs are aware that the anchor sometimes broadcasts news under the Jarida la Citizen or Dira ya Citizen segments.

Education
On matters of education, the seasoned journalist in Kenya is a graduate of the University of Nairobi with a BA in Political Science and Communication and an MA in Communication Studies.
However, less information is known about her private life, and she is not very active on social media. She only posts random photos (of daily activities in Kenya) on her Facebook page.
All in all, Christine Ojiambo’s distinctive and authoritative voice has made her a trusted source for Swahili news in the country.
