After Larry Madowo left The Trend, there were questions on who would be the best fit to replace him on the show.
I guess it is no longer a secret as Njambi Koikai took over the show on Friday with the much needed grace to take over a show that was the most watched TV show in Kenya.
During the first show the petite presenter took it Larry’s way and wore a Kitenge shirt and stunned in a peach dress for the second part of the show. From the comments and tweets, it is evident she did a fair job.
However there wasn’t as much interaction as before. Guess, the viewers will take time to adjust to this change.
The two-part show that runs on Friday evening discusses current topics alongside other hosts like Jeff Mote, Anita Nderu and Ciru Muriuki was founded by Larry himself in 2012. With over 200 episodes, the show has hosted most A-List international artistes and Kenyan ones as well.
It continues to be the most popular show on Kenyan TV.
In his emotional parting shot Larry said, “The trend is always going to be here, it just won’t be the trend with Larry Madowo. This show has been about opportunity for me. And while I have enjoyed every single moment here, I can no longer do it.”
