JULIANI RALLIES CELEBRITY WAITERS FOR CHARITY

After the successful Kenyans for Kenya initiative drive that saw corporates and Kenyans from all walks of life come together to raise funds for our needy Kenyans from the north, Juliani adds to the kitty by rallying support from other celebrities through the Kama Si Sisi ‘Celebrities for Kenya’ Challenge to raise more funds for the initiative.

Last month, hiphop artistes, singers, TV news personalities joined Juliani, through his Kama Si Sisi ‘Celebrities for Kenya’ Challenge at the famous Ranalo Foods (K'Osewe) restaurant located along Kimathi street for a noble cause by serving as waiters. On the day, they raised funds that went into feeding the hunger stricken Kenyans in Turkana.



Benefiting the Kenyans for Kenya Initiative, the likes of Safaricom’s CEO Bob Collymore, Nonini, Nameless, Avril, Eric Omondi, Jeff Koinange, BMF, John Allan Namu, Pierra Makena among other celebrities took orders from the customers and in the same breath distributed informative fliers urging them to contribute to the cause by tipping their services.

“As an extension of our contribution as musicians through the Kilio song that was used to drive the fundraising campaign, we would like to rally other artists and celebrities to contribute further by raising funds through this one day initiative” Juliani said.
Kama Si Sisi ‘Celebrities for Kenya’ was part of Juliani’s wider campaign Kama Si Sisi that uses various platforms to sensitize Kenyans on the need of taking care of yourself by taking care of others.
Here are some of the photos from the day....

ALLAN NAMU TO JUMP THE BROOM

It’s all systems go for John Allan Namu’s wedding. On Sunday during mass at the St Austins Church, Lavington the wedding buns between NTV investigative reporter John Allan Namu and long time fiancée Sheena Makena were announced.
The couple has a baby boy called Muna. The CNN Journalist of the Year is yet to send out the invites to his wedding. Keep it here for the dates. Meanwhile, as the pastor says, “Speak now or forever remain silent.”

ALLAN NAMU MIGHT JUST WIN

The MultiChoice CNN Awards are scheduled for this Saturday July 18. Kenya’s Allan Namu is greatly tipped to emerge as the overall winner this year…
This year the competition received entries from 836 journalists from 38 countries throughout the continent, including French and Portuguese speaking Africa.

The CNN African Journalist of the Year Award was founded in 1995 by Edward Boateng (formerly African Regional Director for Turner Broadcasting System Inc., CNN’s parent company) and the late Mohamed Amin, to recognise and encourage excellence in journalism throughout Africa.

Allan Namu and Mohammed Ali 'in hidding'?

Word making the rounds claim that KTM investigative reporters John Allan Namu and Mohammed Ali are in hiding following death threats.
Well, let me clue yu why the two would be stashed away somwhere abroad.
two weeks a go they did a major, investigative peice that shook the nation. ‘Track it’ was in the middle of it. The TV feature potrayed Track It as defrauding customers by not fitting car track devices which could help in case of a car jacking.
however, Linus Kaikai the Managing Editor of KTN revealed, “We are not aware of any threats. We knew the story was a sensitive one, so we had them take a break. They are not in hiding but have taken a normal break and will be back to work soon.”
