Celebrated radio presenter Maina Kageni has announced his decision to retire from Classic 105 and move out of the country in pursuit of greener pastures.
Speaking to his co-host Mwalimu Kingangi on Thursday, December 9th 2021, Maina said that he will retire from radio early next year.
Maina’s media career spans over 20 years, he has worked as radio presenter for Classic FM, Capital FM and also worked as TV anchor for KTN.
The celebrated Classic FM presenter told his co-host that he plans to relocate to Miami, US where he will be running a club after he retires from radio.
Maina has been running the breakfast show on Classic 105 – Maina and Kingangi in the morning show – alongside Mwalimu Kingangi also known as Churchill for the past 10years.
His decision to retire however is not entirely a shocker to all of his listeners as he had hinted at quitting his job at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic but later on changed his mind.
Maina’s exit from radio will leave a big void in the industry as his morning drive on Classic FM is the most popular show in the country, trending on social media everyday.
