Teenage activist Nyanzi quits business to pursue studies

Nyanzi has argued that his bid to secure direct state financing of CBOs and local non-governmental organisations (NGOs) is informed by the fact that these grassroot entities are pivotal in alleviating communities from bondage of poverty, disease and other afflictions.

He has built a strong presence on social media through Apex Media Services, largely online and has largely used it for advocacy.

Despite the fame at a young age manifested through key interviews conducted with legacy media, he has announced that is recommitting to his studies.

“I am stepping aside from business, including Apex Media Services, which has since rebranded into Block Media Services Ltd. I would like to announce that Aloysious Ssekanjako has been appointed chief executive officer by the board of directors.
Ssekanjako is also the company's majority shareholder, while Joan Vumilia remains company secretary,” Nyanzi said.

Ssekanjako said, “What will be different is having new ideas that develop us. We wish Nyanzi the best in his education endeavours.”
