In the vibrant and competitive world of Kenyan radio, one name continues to rise above the noise Silvester Mutua, famously known as Ithea Kasome. Hailing from the Lower Eastern region, this unstoppable media force has not only captured the hearts of listeners but has also earned global recognition, becoming the only radio presenter from Kenya to be featured in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Ithea Kasome is more than just a name it’s a brand. A vibe. A signature that wakes up thousands every morning with unmatched energy, humor, and authenticity. As a talented morning show host, he’s always on top of current trends, deeply connected with his community, and a true voice of the people. From witty takes to heartfelt storytelling, Ithea knows exactly how to keep his audience locked in from sunrise to late morning.
His media journey is nothing short of legendary. Starting out at Thome FM, moving through County FM, and later taking the airwaves by storm at Akamba FM, Ithea’s voice has become a staple in many households. Now, in a bold and exciting move, he’s set to join the powerhouse that is Mutongoi FM, and the buzz around his debut is already sending shockwaves through the industry.
What makes Ithea Kasome truly exceptional isn’t just his talent it’s his irreplaceable presence. It’s been said in media circles, “You can try to stop Ithea from working in your station, but before the day ends, he’s already been poached by three others.” That’s the level of demand he commands.
Many upcoming radio personalities have tried to replicate his style from mimicking his on-air voice to even borrowing his stage names but none have managed to match his charisma or connect with audiences quite like he does. He’s the blueprint. The original.
Silvester Mutua is not just a radio presenter. He is a movement, a trendsetter, and a living media legend. As he gears up for his next chapter at Mutongoi FM, the region and indeed the nation waits in anticipation for what Ithea Kasome will bring to the mic next.
