Mwanaisha Chidzuga's journey in media

Notably, Chidzuga's career has seen her leave a significant mark on the media landscape, having had engagements with a total of six media houses.

Her media journey commenced at Pwani FM, where she earned her first on-air job as a news presenter.

She subsequently expanded her profile at the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) before solidifying her presence at the Kenya Television Network.

However, her time at the latter was marked by an unexpected turn of events when she was handed a termination notice in 2015.

Undeterred, she continued her career journey with stints at other stations, including the esteemed BBC.

Later in 2015, Chidzuga found herself at K24 TV, where she graced the screen as an anchor for the Swahili News bulletin, demonstrating her unwavering commitment and versatility.

Despite the challenges encountered along the way, her resilience and dedication continued to shine through.

Unfortunately, her journey at the Mediamax-owned company met a roadblock in 2019, when she faced redundancy.

Stepping beyond the confines of media, Chidzuga ventured into the political arena in September 2021, vying for the Matuga Parliamentary seat, inspired by her mother's legacy.

Chidzuga is married to Tana River Senator Danson Mungatana. As she transitions into her new role, her time in the media space will help her in the execution of her new duties.
