Renowned CNN International anchor and reporter was on the Capital FM breakfast show this morning and according to videos and photos, it seems like the two clicked from the word go.
Richard Quest could not hide his excitement and appeared impressed by the Capital FM presenter, Maqbul Mohammed, an interview he said was great with interesting questions.
In a video that Maqbul shared, the CNN journalist was so excited that he even gave the Capital FM presenter a kiss on the cheek.

“@Maqbuli you Sir are a legend. How do you do it all? Thank you for having me on your show this morning…..” said the CNN journalist.
Speaking on Capital FM in the morning, Quest said that he endorses the Blue Economy conference and believes that Kenya has great potential with a strong economy regionally.
The two personalities also sang along to Gloria Gaynor’s hit song, ‘I Will Survive’ that got Quest really excited.
It’s never too early for Gloria Gaynor!
