Following the departure of Larry Madowo from NTV show 'The Trend' back in June the former show host has been replaced by Amina Adbi Rabar.
Last Friday, NTV's Head of TV Sharleen Samat announced that Amina would be succeeding Madowo as the host for the show, putting an end to questions over who would replace Madowo on 'The Trend'.
“Amina presents a new fresh air of breath in the entertainment industry and she has a 360 degree understanding of the industry. She is the new face of entertainment, from TV, radio to emceeing and that is what NTV was looking for,” said Samat.
Madowo was also quick to show his support of the decision to appoint the former Capital FM presenter and took to his twitter account to express his excitement.
“I’m so stoked to welcome Amina as the new host of The Trend. I’ve known her for a long, long time and I’m so proud of her. She and the team will do great things, trust me,” Larry said in his tweet.
Amina's appointment comes with a lot of experience as she hosted K24's 'Alfajiri' show for two consecutive years. Many are poised to see how she will take on the new role.
