So, who am I? My name is Jimmi Gathu…a Kenyan born in February 11th 1970 and raised in a historical estate called Kariokor Flats named after the famous Carrier Corps. I’m a career Radio and TV show host, actor, content creator and corporate MC.
I grew to become a household name thanks to my hosting various shows on TV and Radio spanning 30yrs, from 1990 to date. If you grew up in the 90s then you can recall me hosting your favorite kid’s show Club Kiboko, which I hosted every Saturday Morning.
