Edwin Musiime has officially stepped down as the main host of the Property Show but will remain Executive Producer and owner of the rights of the show that is produced by his company, Olim Media.
Christabel K. Musiime, formerly a co-host, has now taken over as the main host of the leading real estate show in Uganda, airing on NTV Sunday nights.
“Starting and pioneering the idea of a real estate show (The Property Show) has been by far one of my most amazing television experiences in the 21 years of broadcasting that I have had,” Musiime says.
The show premiered in 2012 after Musiime signed a content distribution deal with Africa Broadcasting Services, running NTV in Uganda while Aggie Konde was Managing Director at the station.
“I do appreciate Mrs. Konde, who at that time believed in my dream and gave my team a chance to produce the property show, which for the last 10 years has been an industrious and integral part of the real estate development in the country,” Musiime says.
For the last six months, the show has been undergoing a re-brand and the new show has been reloaded and rebranded and will have its first airing on July 3, 2022, but for now, Christabel takes charge as main host and producer while the transition takes place.
“I have treasured moments when someone walked over to me saying, Edwin, I have literally built my home by watching your show. Edwin, you changed the way I thought about having functional, beautiful spaces. Our fans in Uganda and elsewhere in the world are such a great family, and together, we shall continue delivering good quality content that exposes everyone to good quality housing and real estate,” Musiime says.
Musiime says the show, in its inception, was greatly supported by brands that believed in its ideals at the time, including Roofings and Nina Interiors. The show, at its peak in 2013-2017, was arguably billed as the highest net worth show on the Ugandan airwaves.
The founder of the show now says the show will focus on sustainability as a theme for the next 10 years. The content will cover more human-interest stories affecting homeowners, developers, and those hoping to own a home.
He adds that the show will promote new forms of housing that are affordable, shared, eco-friendly, flexible, stylish, and healthy.
