Our story

Launched in Uganda. Built for a global audience.

Fresh Exclusive Media was launched in September 2024 by Robert Gumisiriza, known on air as MC Fresh, in collaboration with Don-Alvaro Wabwire. With early roots around Makerere University, the platform grew as an online space for thoughtful, accessible conversations about issues reaching far beyond the campus.

Today the team covers social, political and economic issues in Uganda and Africa alongside major geopolitical events through interviews, analysis, field reports, podcasts and short-form video for a global audience.
