Chude Jideonwo, host of #WithChude and founder of Joy, Inc., recently took the show and its mission to Kenya, expanding his ongoing work of telling African stories that inspire healing, purpose, and connection.

The trip to Nairobi marked an important step in strengthening the platform’s presence across East Africa. During the visit, Chude sat down with some of Kenya’s most loved voices, including Njugush, Kambua, and Wanjiru, for heartfelt and honest conversations about creativity, faith, growth, and the realities behind public life.

Chude also appeared on several Kenyan media platforms, including Becoming CEO, Dr. Kingori, and Celes Reflection. Across these platforms, he discussed the vision behind #WithChude, the impact of authentic storytelling, and the importance of emotional and mental well-being in creative work.

The visit to Kenya builds on WithChude’s ongoing work across West Africa, where the platform has consistently highlighted powerful stories from Nigeria and Senegal. Through these conversations, the platform continues to spotlight voices shaping thought, culture, and change across the continent.

Throughout the visit, Chude engaged with Kenya’s vibrant creative community, from conversations with media professionals to informal exchanges with young creators. The trip reaffirmed his belief in the shared values and aspirations that connect storytellers across Africa.

The Kenya visit marks the beginning of deeper collaborations between #WithChude and Kenyan creators. More interviews and special features from this trip will be released in the coming weeks, highlighting voices that continue to shape Kenya’s culture and creative landscape.
