Former KTN Managing Editor Joe Ageyo on Friday announced his decision to leave the Mombasa Road station where he had worked for many years rising from a general reporter to the highest rank. However, he has left many guessing on his next move after calling it a day at Standard.
It has later emerged that the veteran Journalist is headed to Royal Media's Citizen TV to take up a new role of Editorial Director.
According to Business Today, failure by the SK Macharia-funded media house to hire Linus Kaikai who recently left NTV has prompted it to lure Ageyo who is considered the possible replacement of Peter Opondo who has been holding the position since 2014 following the promotion of Farida Karoney to the position of Chief Operations Manager.
Karoney has since left the media house after being appointed to the Cabinet by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Business today claims that Opondo is set to leave the media house at the end of this month.
Should he move to Communications Centre, Ageyo will be reunited with his former colleagues at KTN including Sam Ogina, Mercy Kandie, Anne Kiguta and Lulu Hassan.
