The rise to success of Eiraka radio MD, KK the best|Street Magazine

Ages of my teen met the attractive vocals of Arinaitwe Julius call him KK the best, Omushaija Muringwa. Actually he was the best radio presenter, radio personality, MC and everything you can describe in a radio personality.

We listened to Rwenzori fm where he was by then, for some good years but one day he couldn’t turn up. And the radio was quite boring that day. So dad tuned to the then newly born Voice of Kamwenge radio which was as boring as me at the years of its inception. After reaching the 87.9 stop, KK was airing like this white black coated simple bird you call Kanyamunyu.

Ohhh, it was a cool PCB of KK and Kakyene the son the producer the great (someone remind me of the other names)

That was our trek from Rwenzori to Voice of Kamwenge, and actually it forced Rwenzori shift its base to Ibanda which robbed news from external broadcasters. What I recall in their Bwashesha show, was the Akakyepere 10 minutes to 8am.It was our senior one-senior two dayschooling days and, I received late coming punishments because of KK AND Kakyene’s “Akakyepere” segment. So years moved on, but we had Nokireba ota too which dad couldn’t let pass.

One day, one of the gang couldn’t turn up for few days, and then the fellow too disappeared. The radio started boring, unlistenable and of course we who needed excellent stuff went for the spanking new talent “Bright and Carol” which had been crowned on Endigito radios Big Show after Dj G. However, KK and Kakyene were being searched, asked for even live on air because listeners couldn’t live on without them.

My come again to radio found KK on Endigito radio’s evening show and hehe, I got back to him. But it couldn’t be authentic in dearth of Kakyene  though, once a commando, always a commando….Kk came as a typical suspect. He just fixed the thing at Mbararas base radio and, for a little other time he left. It might not be radio prostitution as you feel; it may be a look for destiny.

By leaving, he had Eiraka media under WUMF call it Western Uganda Media Foundatiom, and he continued to drive the production of his Eiraka magazine. Rumor came through that he was coming with his own radio in the names of “Eiraka” and after some time, we saw the merge of the Old-fashioned Rwenzori fm (in Efurembe names) and the virtual Eiraka broadcasting services to Rwenzori fm Eiraka radio where he apparently stands as PD and MD I mean Managing director.

From a simple little paid, he now recruits, ejects and pays. And besides media, he has gigantic ownership in Kankyende based nursery and primary school; Raising Stars which is not only making wonders but a wonder its self.

Street magazine will arrange and reach KK and share to us how he achieved all this.

Call me Mr vybs.
