Former Women Rep Cate Waruguru surprised radio personality Muthoni wa Kirumba with birthday gifts on Thursday, January 16, at Kameme FM studios.In a heartfelt post, Waruguru captioned her gesture, celebrating Muthoni’s birthday and praising her professionalism and engaging presence on air.
Muthoni wa Kirumba, known affectionately as Baby Top, is a celebrated Kikuyu radio presenter renowned for her vibrant personality and captivating broadcasting style.
Currently, Muthoni co-hosts the popular mid-morning Changamuka show on Kameme FM alongside Kikuyu comedian Muthee Kihenjo.
Their dynamic partnership has endeared them to listeners, establishing their program as one of Kenya’s most beloved radio shows.
Muthoni’s tenure at Kameme FM has not been without drama. Her brief departure in May 2022 sparked controversy amid reports of a political dispute with her employer, Gatonye Wa Mbugua.
Speculation linked her resignation to potential political affiliations conflicting with MediaMax’s ownership ties, which supports President Uhuru Kenyatta, contrasting with her rumored backing of Raila Odinga for president.However, Muthoni swiftly returned to her role, maintaining her candid approach that occasionally stirs controversy, such as the widely publicized incident involving former Kameme employee Keziah Wa Kariuki.
Despite the public spotlight, Muthoni values her privacy, particularly regarding her personal life as a proud single mother to an eight-year-old son.
She chooses to keep details about her child’s father confidential, separating her personal experiences from her professional identity to maintain boundaries in the public eye.
Living in one of Nairobi’s most opulent estates and regularly visiting five-star hotels in Nairobi and Mombasa, Muthoni leads a wealthy existence.
