Uhuru Kenyatta just bought his fourth Radio Station. Guess which?

In small strides, Uhuru Kenyatta is slowly turning into a media mogul, just like Royal Media's S.K Macharia. Slowly taking over radio stations and making changes in each one of them, Uhuru is strongly demanding an audience from the Kenyan citizens.Initially, Uhuru Kenyatta owned three radio stations; Kameme FM, Meru FM and Mbaitu FM, all under MediaMax. Uhuru has now gone and added yet another influential and widely listened to radio station under Mediamax. Milele FM is now owned by deputy Prime Minister, Uhuru Kenyatta. He now has a lot of power over most media houses in Kenya, not forgetting that he also owns K24 and People Newspaper.

Could this purchase have anything to do with the fact that the general elections are just around the corner and therefore more influence on the people is required, or is this just pure business.
