Sometimes back, i was scrolling the free TV channels and i happened to come across CNBC TV African running a programme about some mines in Zambia or something to that effect. I noted that it was showing the various Stock markets figures at the bottom of the screen.
It never caught my mind until the NSE figures started running and i got interested. Along the way, due to the weather, i got a bad signal and that was the first and last time to watch it again. I tried even asking around for the channel that was running the programme buti hit a wall.
That was until i came to know that it was indeed CNBC TV which is opening in Kenya and may be going on air in 3mths time. It will be Kenya's premier business and finance news network on 24/7 basis. CNBC TV will be a free channel.
CNBC TV is part of NBC a wholly owned subsidiary of General Electric who are also in the process of opening a major multi-factory in the country.
Watch out for that channel.
I hope you finally got to watch CNBC Africa? It's on both free to air: channel 47, and DSTV channel 410. We ahve live crossings to kenya 3 times a day as well as interviews on what's moving Kenya's economy (as well as the wider east African Region) on east Africa Business Report Saturdays 11.00 am & 6.30 pm, as well as Sunday 8.30 am.
