NTV Poaches Sports Journalist from K24

She becomes yet another journalist poached by NMG this year.

The Nation Media Group has bolstered its newsroom with the arrival of former K24 journalist Gladys Midecha. Midecha joined NTV after departing Mediamax Network Limited.

The sports journalist was officially introduced by NTV on Sunday, December 7, 2024, just days after she hinted at leaving K24.

In a heartfelt statement on her social media, Midecha expressed her gratitude to Mediamax, describing her time there as “real”.

“Thank you, K24 TV it’s been real,” she said in the statement on November 29, 2024.
