“…the Director of Programs Mr. Pete Sinclair (“PS”), a Caucasian by race, was evidently not happy that the claimant had taken sick leave and had actively started searching for her replacement and even directed the claimant’s co-host to have practice sessions with an identified potential replacement;
“…that the head of Human Resource Management Jima Ndoge (“JN”) on one occasion visited the Claimant, who at the time had been transferred to high dependency unit, and was more concerned with when she would resume official duties than her condition” the court documents read in part.
Ms Muikamba also decries a hostile working environment consisting of an abusive boss.
"He would on numerous occasions refer to the claimant in a derogatory manner and refer to her as a sickling and follow it up with a f*cking useless,” the documents say.

The media personality wants Radio Africa to declare that she was wrongfully dismissed from work and is now seeking damages for wrongful termination equivalent to 12 months’ pay amounting to Sh 2,160,000 and also be issued with a certificate of service.
According to the Radio Host, it's the mental torture that led her to resign from Classic 105.
“A declaration and finding that the resignation of the claimant was involuntarily and consequently she was constructively dismissed by the respondent which amounted to unfair, procedural and illegal termination” the court documents read in part.
