"

Africa is no longer catching up — we are setting the trends. Cape Media's mission is clear: to give voice to every Kenyan, from Nairobi to Turkana, and to build broadcast infrastructure that the entire continent can aspire to replicate.

When we launched TV47 in 2019, we made a promise — to represent all 47 counties, to tell the stories that mainstream media ignores, and to build a media house grounded in integrity. Five years later, that promise has manifested in our growth, Africa's first All-IP radio studio, and partnerships with organisations from UNDP to the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce. We are only just beginning.

Chief Executive Officer
Mwenda Njoka, MBS

Mwenda Njoka, MBS, brings 30 years of experience spanning investigative journalism, media leadership, and Government service to his role as Group Managing Director and CEO of Cape Media Limited. He is widely regarded as a pioneer of investigative journalism in Kenya, having cut his teeth at Society Magazine during the country's pro-democracy struggle of the early 1990s. In 1991, he was among the journalists arrested when police raided the magazine's Nairobi offices and charged with sedition for reporting critical of the Moi government; he was subsequently incarcerated at Shimo la Tewa Prison in Mombasa before being released on bail, an episode that remains a defining chapter in Kenya's press freedom history. He went on to become a CNN African Journalist of the Year finalist (2004), winner of the Kenya Union of Journalists' Journalist of the Year award (2003), and a Kalasha Film & TV Award winner for his documentary on assassinated legislator J.M. Kariuki. He is the recipient of the Moran of the Burning Spear (MBS) state honour, and Founder and Executive Director of the Africa Centre for Investigative Journalism. He later served as Kenya's Government Printer and as Communications Director at the Ministry of Interior, giving him a rare depth of insight into both the media industry and the machinery of Government. At CML, he leads the Group's television, radio, digital, and creative operations with a focus on editorial integrity, strategic growth, and building Kenya's next generation of media talent.
