Fahd back at Express News: reports
Fahd Hussain is set to make a comeback at Express News as Director News. His return follows a position that has been vacant since his departure in 2010.

ISLAMABAD: Job-hopping executive and television anchor Fahd Hussain is reported to have joined Express News, a channel he quit in 2010.

Reports say he returns as Director News, a position that lay vacant since he left, expect for a stint by Nadeem Raza.

With BOL TV flexing its wings, the Lakhanis decided to go for a revamp in order to compete with other channels. One step in that direction was to get back Fahd who once helped the channel take off.
