Through a tweet on Thursday, Larry thanked everyone who watched his shows and his colleagues for everything they accomplished.
His tweet read: I leave NTV as I came: humbled & grateful. The job was one of the great honours of my life. Thanks to everyone who watched, and to Nation for the privilege of the opportunity. I’m proud of my amazing colleagues & everything we accomplished. Farewell, my friends. Stay woke

Larry’s resignation comes in barely a week after eight columnists also quit their jobs. ‘Editorial independence’- the lack of it, cited as the main reason why they quit.
I asked my social media students to name one person on social media they admire. One student said Larry Madowo. I asked why. Reply: he's versatile. Does well with "hard news," does well with "entertainment," and has a large following.
All the best in the next move, Larry. https://t.co/98grke33S1— Dr Wandia (@wmnjoya) March 29, 2018
