Flavia Tumusiime Appointed Head of NTV, Spark TV, KFM at Just 36

Flavia Tumusiime has been appointed Head of Broadcast at Nation Media Uganda. In her new role, she will oversee NTV Uganda, Spark TV, KFM, and Dembe FM.

Flavia began her media journey on the Teens Club show at WBS TV and has since worked across television and radio. At 36, she now becomes one of the youngest people to hold such a senior position in Uganda’s media sector.

The appointment was reportedly made by the Nation Media board last month. It follows a decision to replace the title of General Manager with Head of Broadcast. She takes over from Johnson Omollo, who left the organisation earlier this year.

With more than 100 staff under her leadership, Flavia is now responsible for guiding four major media platforms. While some have raised concerns about her experience in management, many point to her years as a news anchor at NTV, her time at Capital FM, and her personal business projects as evidence of her readiness.

Flavia’s husband, Andrew Kabuura, works as Head of Sports Broadcast at Next Media, a competitor in the industry.

Her appointment marks a new chapter both for her and for Nation Media Uganda, as she moves into a key leadership role in the country’s media landscape.
