Kasumba left Urban TV and joined NBS TV in 2016.

Earlier in the day, Next Media Services CEO, Kin Karisa shared a photo while in a conversation with Samson Kasumba and Joel Khamadi and Twitted “Transition can be troublesome and yet inevitable”.

When time for Live at 9 clocked, instead of Kasumba being on set, he was filmed driving home lamenting with bible verses.

And a season for every activity under the heavens, But i like verse 3 going in to 4, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to weep and a time to laugh, There is a time for Samson Kasumba but this is the time for Joel Khamadi, Thats life.
