Media personality Janet Mbugua has announced her exit from Nation Media Group, stepping down from her role on the morning programme Fixing the Nation after just over a year.
The announcement was made during her final segment on Friday, April 17, where she has been co-hosting the show alongside Eric Latiff and Mariam Bishar.
Mbugua explained that her decision to join the programme was driven by a desire to extend her advocacy work into mainstream media, particularly during a period of heightened national discourse.
“It was coming off the back of a very intense season in the country that I had already been very vocal about. So it just felt like a natural fit to continue with that advocacy and active citizen lens and bring it onto a mainstream platform,” she said.
Fixing the Nation, which airs every weekday from 6am to 10am across Nation Media Group platforms, has built a reputation for tackling key national issues, focusing on solutions, expert perspectives, and citizen engagement.
Her departure marks the end of a notable stint on the show, where she played a key role in shaping conversations around governance, social issues, and public accountability.
More details on her next move are expected.
