State Minister: HE Ato Peter Gatkuoth Gey

"It is our intent that through Nzuri Africa regional tourism for all planned locations will experience a boom--as middle aged Africans will be incited to explore the region more", pronounces Miji Pearse, one of the Executive Producers for the series and International Media Consultant with Premium World Brand Management. "Furthermore, opportunities for collaboration between Africans on the continent and those in the Diaspora that are connected to tourism and television content production will be explored and fostered to ensure sustainable growth and development of both industries on a global scale; as we work with African partners to synergize like-minded efforts."
