A Production Manager with Capital FM is facing disciplinary action over social media posts propagating gender-based violence.
In a statement posted on Twitter by the Capital Group, the media house owned by billionaire  businessman Chris Kirubi said it has noted with concern Joe W. Muchiri’s posts and is dealing with the matter with the seriousness it deserves.
“We would like to make it abundantly clear that we do not support or condone gender based violence or any form of violence. We are therefore dealing with the matter with the seriousness it deserves,” said the statement.
Here is Capital Group’s statement:
It is believed the move came after Muchiri had an altercation with a lady by the name Wanjiru Maina for which he later apologised.

He has also had exchanges with socialites such as Huddah Monroe and at one time made lewd remarks about now Nairobi Women Representative Esther Passaris attracting the ire of Annerlisa Muigai, the daughter of Keroche Breweries proprietor Tabitha Karanja.
Muchiri, also a radio presenter, started working at Capital FM immediately after college, though he had a short stint as an intern in KTN.
“Capital is my 1st and last job,” he says on his profile on the Capital FM website.
