Capital FM radio host Anita Nderu has quit her job at the station. The top presenter shared it was a long time coming after she drafted her resignation letter months ago.

“I drafted my resignation letter in February but every day, I was like I’m sending this today, then I would tell myself, today is not a good day because am supposed to record something,” Anita said during Kasha event at Emory Hotel.

Done on good terms

The 29-year-old said that she had been trying to quit for a long time but finally did while on a flight. She said leaving the station was doe on good terms because she feels like she has mastered the job and needs new challenges.

“I [held back] for a while, until one day when I was in a plane where I felt like this is the right time because, by the time I am landing, I will just delete the email or undo,” she said.

“It is not that I did not love the organisation or I did not want to be there anymore, but I think I have given my best and I want new challenges.”

Anita has worked both at radio and TV, with the former being where she worked longer.

What I love the most about radio is nobody sees you, you can go to work in Pjs; every single day your wig is a mess and no makeup.

It makes you read more, research more and brings out the creative side of you.

The former Capital FM radio presenter however points out that she actually prefers TV more since it brings out her natural side.

Given the option, I think TV comes naturally to me.

There is something about the camera going on that makes me come alive and easily know what to say because with the TV you have to be meticulous.

Being on The Trend was the most exciting and one of my favorite places to be.
