My connection to Africa
Kenya-being my home country, i am interested in writing news article, features and opinions on different issues, as they unfold.I believe i have alot to tell about Kenya in different genre of news including politics, business,culture, national heritage, social lives of people among others. As a journalist, i am obligated to report in an accurate, objective and uphold the highest standards of professionalism so as to disseminate balanced news to the public. Uganda,Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi(East Africa)- I am also interested in covering news that pertains to the East African community. This is because Kenya has alot in common with these countries as regards culture. Kenya also partners with these countries in the economic emancipation of the EA region. I am not limited to other African countries.
