 Terryanne Chebet

And she is back on TV but this time round under her own terms as the boss lady of Kenya’s first 24-hour business television station.

The former Citizen TV news presenter has been appointed as the CEO of Fanaka TV. Breaking the news via her social media she promised something new the Kenyan audience has never seen before.

‘’Business Television is my life. It is with humility and lots of enthusiasm that I am proud to accept my appointment as the Chief Executive Officer of Fanaka Television, the first 24 hour Business Television Channel in Kenya.’’ She posted.

Aiming to give the local audience the best, the mother of two who had a brief stint at CNBC together with her team went on a benchmarking tour of CNBC Africa and Forbes Africa Magazine in Johannesburg.

‘’We will cover business and the economy in a way that has never been done in Kenya. In this endeavour, we have embarked on a global benchmarking tour to set our standards to match the best of the best in business journalism. Today my team conducted an extensive benchmarking tour of CNBC Africa and Forbes Africa Magazine here in Johannesburg. We look forward to collaborating with sister Business Tv's in Africa and beyond. Welcome to Fanaka Television where we are guided by our motto 'Strictly Business. What a pleasure to once again reconnect with Roberta Naicker, MD CNBC Africa after sooo many years and the very funny Chris Bishop who I worked with during my days at CNBC Africa.’’ She wrote.

The media personality lost her job in 2016 following a restructuring by Royal Media Services where over 100 employees were sent packing.

The Keyara Organics CEO will be working alongside Jimmy Gathu who is the head of TV and operations at Fanaka.
