  • Nick Odhiambo quit Radio Maisha about three weeks ago, after 4 years of service.

A few weeks ago, Radio presenter Nick Odhiambo announced his exit from Standard Group owned Radio Maisha.

He, however, did not reveal where he was headed to next, but reports said that he would be joining the Royal Media Services' Hot 96.

On Thursday, Mr Odhiambo decided to share with his followers details of his first experience on radio, 15 years ago.

According to him, Maina Kageni who was his then boss switched on the mic and asked him to speak, but everything he planned to say slipped his mind and he said they should not do it.

Maina insisted saying they were already on and he should just go for it and he is here celebrating 15 years as a radio presenter.
