Excited fans cannot contain themselves as they ready to hear his deep voice once again after making the announcement that he will be back on the airwaves at Nation FM.
“Alright. Now it’s really on 96.3 in the morning… tomorrow from. 6am. This son of a gun is back,” tweeted Fareed.
Fareed will be making a comeback to host the morning show two years after the station went under alongside sister stations QTV, QFM and KFM in Rwanda.

“It is a quick witted humorous show hosted by the enigmatic Fareed Khimani that primarily focuses on music and entertainment. The target audience is ‘university – up’ i.e from 18 to 30 male or female who are tech savvy. The show will air every weekday from 6 am to 9 am, helping you through your commute or your tasks at work,” Clifford Machoka told Business Daily.
