Her appointment signals a strategic move by Nation Media Group Uganda to bolster its content development, audience engagement, and digital transformation efforts in an increasingly competitive media landscape.
“We are excited to welcome Flavia Tumusiime to our leadership team,” the management of Nation Media Group Uganda said in a statement. “Her impressive track record, deep understanding of African media markets, and passion for impactful storytelling make her a perfect fit for this role.”
Flavia’s media journey began in her teenage years with the iconic Teen’s Club show on WBS TV, where she honed her skills alongside fellow young presenters.
