Ayub Abdikadir, a former news anchor for K24, has joined Citizen TV, a channel owned by Royal Media Services (RMS). Abdikadir, who was stolen from Mediamax, is now a political journalist at the media outlet owned by SK Macharia. A cross-check of his social media accounts shows that the rapidly rising journalist has already changed his bio to reflect his new position and employer.
