A few weeks after Investigative Journalist Raymond Mujuni Qatahar left NBS Television retracing his steps back to NTV, renowned journalist, Solomon Serwanjja also tendered in his resignation and rumor had it that he was joining a Kenya based TV station.
New reaching our desk suggests otherwise. According to our snoops, BBC World News Komla Dumor award winner Solomon Serwanjja will be joining the state TV Station, UBC, in a top role that has not yet been disclosed.
Serwanjja has produced award-winning reports, including one for BBC’s Africa Eye programme about the illegal sale of prescription drugs.
Serwanjja is the fifth winner of the award, following in the footsteps of Waihiga Mwaura, Amina Yuguda, Didi Akinyelure and fellow Ugandan Nancy Kacungira. The award was created to honour Komla Dumor, a presenter for BBC World News, who died suddenly aged 41 in 2014.
As part of the prize, he will spend three months at the BBC in London and travel back to the continent to report on a story there.
He is a well-known journalist and his passion for investigative journalism highlighted his desire to make positive change in his native Uganda.
This is a developing story.
