Kisii TV is a regional free‑to‑air broadcaster based in Kisii Town that serves audiences in and around Kisii County and the wider Abagusii community. Operated by Kemoly Media Kisii Ltd and licensed by Kenya’s Communications Authority, the station focuses on hyperlocal journalism that reflects daily life, governance, and culture in the Gusii heartland. Branded “Amandegere Y’omogusii,” a nod to Gusii heritage, Kisii TV frames stories through a community lens—spotlighting county developments, social issues, and human‑interest narratives that rarely appear on national bulletins. Its reporters document events across market centres, institutions and villages, capturing voices in the language and idiom familiar to local viewers. Beyond terrestrial broadcasting, Kisii TV publishes video reports on its YouTube channel, giving diaspora audiences timely access to county updates and community features. The station’s mix typically includes local news briefs, interviews with civic leaders, grassroots initiatives, and coverage of notable occurrences affecting residents. By maintaining a consistent presence on the ground and online, Kisii TV provides a platform where Kisii and Nyamira residents can see their concerns translated into public conversation. Its identity is rooted in service to Ekegusii speakers and those interested in the region’s affairs, positioning the outlet as a reference point for verified, street‑level reporting from southwestern Kenya.
