Former Galaxy FM presenter Mr. Henrie says the station’s recent wave of exits proves its strength in grooming top media talent for bigger opportunities.
As Uganda’s media industry continues to experience frequent presenter movements, Galaxy FM has found itself at the center of public debate. With several high-profile personalities leaving the station in recent months, many listeners have questioned whether the popular broadcaster is facing internal struggles.
However, former Galaxy FM presenter Mr. Henrie has dismissed those claims, insisting that the departures are not a sign of weakness but evidence of the station’s powerful brand within Uganda’s media space.
Galaxy FM, widely known for its vibrant entertainment shows, celebrity gossip, and national news coverage, has recently seen notable names such as Mr. Henrie, Prim Asiimwe, and Evelyn MIC cross over to NRG Radio, while Alfa Tymz joined Next Media. Given the massive audiences these presenters command, their exit sparked speculation about the station’s stability and future.
Speaking on The Ugandan Boy Talk Show (TUBTS) podcast hosted by Bonny Kibuuka, Mr. Henrie offered clarity on the situation. He emphasized that Galaxy FM is not a failing station but rather a talent incubation hub that prepares presenters for greater opportunities.
“Galaxy is a brand that nurtures and grooms talent until it reaches a point of commanding exceptional value,” Mr. Henrie explained.
According to him, the station deliberately invests in identifying and polishing raw talent, creating media personalities so valuable that other major media houses are eager to recruit them. He described Galaxy FM as a launchpad, not just a workplace.
Mr. Henrie further noted that presenter exits should be viewed positively, as they validate the station’s role in shaping industry-ready professionals.
“Our departures don’t weaken the brand. They reinforce its strength by proving just how valuable we are and create room for new young talent,” he added.
Despite familiar voices moving on, Mr. Henrie believes Galaxy FM’s legacy remains intact and sustainable. He maintains that the station will continue to stay relevant by consistently grooming new stars and adapting to the evolving media landscape.
As Uganda’s radio industry becomes increasingly competitive, Galaxy FM’s reputation as a talent powerhouse appears to be one of its strongest assets—turning presenter exits into proof of influence rather than decline.
