Many speculate that Alfa Timez may be stepping into the shoes of veteran presenter Tuff B on NBS TV’s entertainment show Kurt.
Tuff B has recently ventured into politics and is reportedly eyeing the Makindye East parliamentary seat in next year’s general elections.
According to company policy at Next Media, employees who join active politics are required to step down from their media roles, paving the way for new talent to fill their spots.
Alfa joins the growing list of media personalities crossing from other media outlets to Next Media. The latest notable acquisition was Haffy Powers, who moved from BBS Terefayina to Sanyuka TV, replacing Ray P, who recently relocated to the USA with her family.
