Chilekasi Adele reports for the KDKA-TV Morning News. From hard news to fun stories, nothing excites him more than making sure KDKA's loyal viewers are informed as they start their days.
Chilekasi joined KDKA in June 2024. He's originally from Delaware County, Pennsylvania, on the other side of the state, but he does have Pittsburgh ties! His father went to college in Pittsburgh after emigrating to the United States, and his godfather still lives in the city.
Chile graduated from Syracuse University in 2024. While at school, he worked for the student-TV station there, CitrusTV, where he was a reporter, anchor, photojournalist. He also served as assistant news director for a year, in addition to serving on the station's executive staff as Programming Director.
He covered campus news, presidential visits, and special elections in college. He finished as a finalist in 2024's Hearst Journalism Awards National Championship - one of college journalism's premier competitions.
While in college, Chile interned at WCAU-TV in Philadelphia, as well as our sister station, CBS Philadelphia.
When he's not working, Chile enjoys watching the news (he can't take a break) and his beloved Philadelphia sports teams - particularly the Phillies.
