Confirmed: Jalang'o Replaces Andrew Kibe at Kiss FM

On July 3, 2020, former Milele FM presenter Felix Odiwour, popularly known as Jalang'o, confirmed that he had replaced Andrew Kibe at Kiss 100.

During a show on his YouTube channel, Jalang'o hosted Kibe and addressed several issues that Kenyans had been speculating on.

Kibe gave Jalang'o his blessings and explained the circumstances surrounding his resignation, praising Kamene Goro as a hard-working co-host who was always one of the first people to show up for work.

They had met in a club in Nairobi on the evening before the announcement but didn't discuss the job, and Kibe revealed that his former co-host Kamene Goro did not know about his pending exit.

Speaking about the reason for his exit, Kibe disclosed that he was not pleased with how his boss perceived him, stating, 'I caught him looking at me one day and I saw a speck of pity in his eyes. So three months ago I told him I would leave.'

He also hinted that while deliberating on his decision to leave, he was intoxicated, and added that being on the radio made him feel caged and censored, citing times he was forced to think about his content and whether it would be flagged by the Communications Authority.

During the show, Kamene Goro interrupted and welcomed Jalang'o to the Kiss FM family, and in a past interview, Kamene claimed that the duo had raked a very hefty fine bill for their former station NRG over the content on their show.
