Local Journalist’s Journey from Dreams to Reality Inspires Aspiring Reporters

Mustafa Haruna, a well-respected media professional and current media associate for Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro, recently shared his inspiring journey from aspiring journalist to a key figure in Kenyan media.

Haruna’s story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the importance of seizing opportunities.

In a heartfelt reflection on his career, Haruna took a moment to look back at his beginnings. His dream of becoming an international journalist started in 2014, driven by a passion for storytelling and a vision to make a significant impact in the field of journalism.

Haruna’s career commenced at Boen Photography Kenya, a platform where he not only honed his skills but also took on the role of a mentor for others entering the profession. “My time at Boen Photography was foundational for me,” Haruna recalled. “It was where I learned the nuances of the industry and also had the chance to teach and inspire others. I am deeply appreciative of that period.”

A pivotal moment in Haruna’s journey came when he was given an opportunity by Hon. Adams Kipsanai to enter the political arena. Kipsanai’s mentorship provided Haruna with invaluable experience and support, fostering a relationship that Haruna describes as akin to that of a sibling. “Hon. Adams Kipsanai’s belief in me and his guidance were instrumental in shaping my career,” Haruna said.

Haruna also acknowledged the ongoing support from Hon. Ndindi Nyoro, MP for Kiharu, who has played a crucial role in connecting him with key figures in the media and political sectors. “Hon. Ndindi Nyoro’s support has been unwavering. His connections and encouragement have been vital as I continue to grow in this field,” Haruna noted.

Reflecting on his journey, Haruna offered words of encouragement to those just starting their careers. “To those who are beginning their own paths, my advice is simple: never give up. There will always be obstacles, but every challenge is an opportunity to learn and advance. Keep pushing forward, and you will find success.”

Haruna’s story serves as an inspiration to aspiring journalists and professionals alike. His experience underscores the importance of mentorship, perseverance, and seizing opportunities when they arise.

As Haruna continues to work with MP Ndindi Nyoro, his story remains a beacon for those pursuing their dreams. He is a living example of how dedication and hard work can transform dreams into reality.
