The accomplished radio presenter resigned from Capital FM in December 2023, marking the end of his stint at the media house that spanned several years dating back to mid-2000’s with a break before returning to the station in 2019.

"It was what I always wanted to do. And I did it. It was incredible from start to finish. When I was asked to come back in 2019, I didn't even hesitate. I have loved every minute of it. But like all good things, even this one had to come to an end.

“As I tendered my resignation, I wrestled with the decision for weeks. It wasn't easy, but it felt right. Thank you @swimbohouse for my first shot and to @chriskirubi for inviting me back. To you the listeners and this incredible group of talented folks I worked with throughout my journey.” Khimani wrote on his resignation.
