Larry Madowo wows Kenyans after posting a video reporting in Swahili; a side of him that many didn’t know

BBC journalist Larry Madowo has won the hearts of my after he was able to report live in very fluent Swahili.

The journalist who is among the most successful young reporters from Kenya is popularly known for his good reporting in English and has never reported in Swahili before.

Proving yet again that he’s a talented journalist Madowo impressed many by his flow and mastery of Swahili as he reported the Uber drivers woes on their remuneration.

Kwa wale ambao hawaamini kwamba ninaweza kuripoti kwa Kiswahili, ushahidi ndio huu. Lakini chambilecho wahenga, cha muhimu ni uhai 😂
