What the report says

NBS Television presenter Victoria Sibiya has been named by Empire Magazine Africa among its 2026 Top 10 Female TV Anchors and Presenters, according to Nile Post. The list brings together broadcasters from several African countries, including Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa and Côte d’Ivoire. Sibiya appears in the selection alongside other well-known media personalities from across the continent.

Nile Post reported that Sibiya co-anchors NBS Television’s flagship evening bulletin, Live at 9, and also appears in other programming. Her work includes moderating discussions on public policy, leadership, business and social transformation through shows such as Breakfast Meeting and Impact Uganda. The article also said she contributes to Next Radio and has handled moderation duties for institutional and political discussions, including during the 2026 election period under the UG Votes platform.

Empire Magazine Africa’s profile of Sibiya described her as a Ugandan broadcast journalist, presenter and communications professional. The publication said its editorial team considered factors such as broadcasting experience, professional recognition, presentation and interviewing skills, audience engagement and broader contributions to African media. It also noted that the list was an editorial selection, not a scientific ranking based on audience reach or influence.

Sibiya responded to the recognition on X, expressing excitement about the news. Her inclusion adds to the visibility of Ugandan media talent in a continental list that highlights women working across news, current affairs, sports and entertainment broadcasting.
