TV personality Anne Kiguta is set to make a comeback on K24 with her new show Punchline, airing this Sunday, July 21, 2019, at 9pm.
Months after leaving Citizen TV, Kiguta will be hosting guests in an out-of-the-box setting, a boxing ring, where she will conduct hard-hitting interviews.
According to promo pictures, Kiguta will be seen in boxing gloves, with the teaser video showing her taking the gloves off.
"I am back now because I'm ready to do what I love and because it is so necessary in this season, to bring a fresh perspective to the uncertain political climate Kenya is facing," Kiguta said in an interview.
She added, "I'm passionate about my country and I intend to speak up. So when Peter Opondo (Editor-in-Chief) recalled me to the frontlines, there was only one answer to give- a resounding yes!"
With her vast experience interviewing top politicians, it is expected that her guest list will be as high profile as can be.
Anne Kiguta re-joins the crème of Kenya's news journalists who have worked their way to having their own TV segment.
"The show is called Punchline and airs this Sunday night at 9:30pm. It's a straight-talking, no-holds-barred brawl. It's bold, authentic, pulls-no-punches, wildly entertaining and signature me," Kiguta said about her role.
