On newsmakers, we feature a man credited with revolutionizing a relatively new concept in this country, in such a monumental manner that Kenya is now the envy of the rest of the world. Almost from scratch, the man set up what is now the region's most profitable company, which also boasts of the globally acclaimed M-Pesa mobile money transfer service. Yes, we are talking about Michael Joseph, and the house he built, Safaricom Limited. Ten months after he passed on the Safaricom leadership baton to Bob Collymore, M.J, as he's still popularly known, speaks about his decision to quit as Safaricom CEO, why he recently resigned as chairman of the Kenya Tourism Board barely a year after his appointment, his role as a father and a husband, as well his love for dogs. Evelyn Wambui brings us Michael Joseph on this week's newsmakers.
