This comes even as the mainstream media experiences a series of mass firings brought about by the adverse effects of Covid-19 on businesses.
Mr. Muitiriri and Nancy Onyancha who formerly worked for Inooro TV and Switch TV are some of those who were casualties of the mass firings by their former employers, the Royal Media Services (RMS) and Mediamax Limited.
In the mass firings, Mediamax rendered jobless more than 100 people after another mass firing that saw about 170 employees dismissed due to tough economic times. Nation Media Group (NMG) is also reported to have relieved an excess of 160 employees, and the Royal Media Services which saw quite a good number of people rendered jobless.
