Known across East Africa as the “Media Messiah,” Azeezah Hashim has carved out a remarkable career by mastering the art of connecting with people whether she is behind a radio microphone, hosting television, commanding a festival stage, working the DJ console or representing a global brand.
Azeezah brings the same signature energy, confident, warm, witty and unpredictable enough to keep audiences hooked.
With more than a decade in the media industry, Azeezah has hosted over 200 events across Africa and beyond, ranging from concerts and award ceremonies to corporate launches, conferences and major brand activations.
Her journey is backed by a First Class Honours degree in Broadcast Journalism from the University of Nairobi, while the deep voice she once considered unusual has become one of her biggest trademarks.
Today, her distinctive baritone is instantly recognisable across radio, television, commercials and live events, reaching audiences in Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania.
Her digital influence has also grown significantly, with more than one million followers across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and X.
From Radio To The Biggest Stages
Azeezah currently keeps weekday listeners entertained through The Breakout Show on Hot 96 FM, where her humour and effortless conversations have become a defining part of the programme.
Come Friday night, she takes over television screens as the face of 10 over 10, Citizen TV Kenya’s flagship entertainment show.
Her growing regional profile has also taken her beyond East Africa. In 2025, Azeezah became the first East African to co-host The Future Awards Africa in Lagos, further cementing her reputation as one of the continent’s sought-after hosts.
Her trophy cabinet reflects the success of her career, with more than 20 international awards and recognitions across Africa, including Media Personality of the Year, Best Event Host, Best Radio Host Africa and On-Air Personality of the Year.
In 2026, she added another accolade after being named Online Influencer of the Year at Nigeria’s Ranks Awards.
More Than A Presenter
Azeezah’s career extends far beyond radio and television. She is also a voice-over artist, DJ, commercial model and brand ambassador, working with major brands across the continent.
Her biggest strength is her versatility. She can move from a corporate boardroom to a packed concert stage, a radio studio to a red carpet, while maintaining the authenticity that has made her popular with audiences and brands alike.
For Azeezah, the microphone is more than a professional tool—it is a platform for starting conversations, creating connections and entertaining people.
With a growing pan-African presence, more than a decade of experience and a reputation for commanding audiences wherever she appears, Azeezah Hashim continues to prove that her talent cannot be confined to a single media lane.
