“The company did not fire me. My contract with them was up until the end of this month, January and there was no need for me to renew because I also told you I wanted more for my life,” she said.
Kamene joined Kiss 100 in 2019 from NRG Radio with her former bestie, Andrew Kibe alongside DJ Kace.
Shaffie Weru left Radio Africa in March 27, 2021 alongside Homeboyz breakfast show co-hosts Neville and DJ Joe Mfalme.
This was after an online uproar over comments made by the trio on a news story involving the pushing of a woman off the 12th floor of a building after she turned down the sexual advances of the man she was on a date with.
