Wahiga And Joyce Marveling Fashion Sense At BBC Awards

Citizen TV’s sports anchor Wahiga Mwaura bagged a lucrative BBC award in the month of September 2018.

Mwaura was announced as the winner of BBC World News Komla Dumor award.

Joyce Omondi’s husband will also spend three months at BBC in London, where he will later return with a story to report.

The award was created in honour of Komla Dumor, a presenter for BBC World News, who died suddenly aged 41 in 2014.

“Komla Dumor meant a lot of things to me as a journalist and as an individual,” he said. “If I can only achieve just 10 or 20% of what he did, I feel like I would have made my contribution to journalism.

“As an African, I feel proud to have the opportunity to be able to tell the African story to audiences across the world”, Wahiga said.
