Kenya’s Kalasha Film and TV Awards 2010 came in style. Three Cabinet Ministers (Samuel Pogishio with P.S Bitange Ndemo– Information, Uhuru Kenyatta – Finance and Anyang Nyogo – Medical Services) graced this year’s Kalasha Awards on Saturday, 25th September.

The Gala Night at the KICC saw Kalasha Award Nominees arrive in spectacular style, Limousine, red carpet and then some. Beautifully clad in mostly African apparel, the Kenyan stars were just exquisite; it was their night. It was absolute celebration of Kenyan Film and TV with, MCs Caroline Mutuko and Eddie Kimani, Kenyan gospel sensation Emmy Kosgei, Carol Atemi, Linda Muthama onstage.

Royal Media Services, deservedly, reigned supreme with Citizen TV shows bagging the most awards with KIMC enjoying similar victories. Oliver Litondo received the Lifetime Achievement Award, Litondo stars as Maruge Kimani (the world’s oldest student) in the internationally acclaimed movie: The First Grader. K24 received the Kituo Halisi Award for promoting Kenyan content (Note: Citizen TV received this award in 2009). Inspekta Mwala and Tahidi High were awarded Best TV Program (Overall). It’s nice to see that all the shows TheOnlineKenyan featured (here) got Awards (#justcoincidence). Congratulations are in order not only for our 2010 Winners but all the Kalasha nominees, kudos.See ALL the 2010 Kalasha Awards Results Here ( vilesiufanya...Exclusively):
