Fellaris Wambui on the Nairobi Protests, Kenya’s Future, The Rise of TikTok & The Demise of Radio

This week on The Long Form, I sit down with Fellaris Wambui, the popular Capital FM radio host, to unpack the shifting sands in Kenya.We discuss Kenya’s economic paradox: rising metrics but deep public pessimism, and what the country might look like in the next 10 years.We also explore whether radio can survive in the age of podcasts and TikTok, the tension between going viral and telling stories that matter, and how Kenyan media can amplify women’s voices while navigating financial pressures. Paid partnership with:Ntare Louisenlund International School: Go to https://ntare-louisenlund.org/ to learn how you can give your child a world-class German STEM education in Rwanda.  Waka Fitness: Go to https://waka.fitbase.rw/thelongform and get 20% off your gym membership.
