Kampala: When a story hits too close to home, it’s impossible to ignore. NBS TV’s Henry Mugenyi delivered just that with his investigative piece, Stolen Identity: Dr. Know Nothing.
The exposé, which uncovered a fake doctor operating unchecked, has earned him the Media Personality of the Year award at the Private Sector Development Awards.
More than a compelling headline, this story peeled back the layers of a healthcare system riddled with loopholes, leaving viewers shocked—and policymakers scrambling for answers.
“For me, this recognition isn’t just about the award,” Mugenyi said. “It’s about the lives we touched, the questions we raised, and the demand for change we amplified.”
Mugenyi’s work highlights the power of journalism to shape public discourse and push for accountability.
With stakeholders now under pressure to act, he hopes stories like Dr. Know Nothing will lead to tangible reforms.
This award-winning journalist has proven that investigative reporting can go beyond uncovering the truth—it can inspire change.
