Jeff Koinange has been missing from his prime-time show, JKL Live.
Veteran journalist Jeff Koinange’s unexplained absence from Citizen TV has sparked intense speculation among Kenyans, with many wondering whether he has left the station, taken a break, or is negotiating behind the scenes.
The popular Jeff Koinange Live (JKL) show, which carries his name, has continued airing, but without Jeff at the helm. Instead, other journalists such as Ayub Abdikadir have stepped in as guest hosts, fueling further curiosity.
Jeff’s absence has not gone unnoticed by his fans, many of whom have taken to social media to express confusion and disappointment.
“JKL without Jeff doesn’t feel the same,” one viewer lamented online.
His energy, wit, and bold interview style have long defined the show, making his disappearance from the screen hard to ignore.
According to insiders familiar with the situation, such absences may be linked to ongoing contract talks, personal projects, or management changes within the media house. Some suggest discussions between Jeff and Citizen TV’s leadership could still be underway.
Despite the growing speculation, Jeff has remained silent across his social media platforms, leaving fans to draw their own conclusions.
Others believe the celebrated anchor could be preparing for a new career chapter, possibly venturing into digital media or international broadcasting a move many prominent journalists have made in recent years.
Regardless of the uncertainty, Jeff Koinange’s impact on Kenyan journalism remains unmatched. His unique delivery, confidence, and ability to tackle difficult topics have made him a respected figure across the region.
As fans eagerly await official communication from either Jeff or Citizen TV, one thing remains clear: Jeff’s presence on Kenyan television has left an indelible mark, and his next move is one of the most anticipated stories in the country’s media landscape today.
