Sekou Hamilton is a journalist, former editor of the Aerelon Gazette. Following the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, he becomes one of three co-hosts forThe Colonial Gang, the Fleet's Talk Wireless political events show (TRS: "Colonial Day"). He is also present at several press conferences held by the Fleet's leadership.

During a press conference attended by Lee Adama, Vice President Tom Zarek and Admiral William Adama, Sekou Hamilton asks Zarek about his opinion on the alliance with the Cylons, his coldly replies "No comment.". Hamilton later asks the identity of the fifth Cylon, making a gaffe reveals that the fifth is a woman by saying, "she died some time ago." The three leaders end the conference as the reporters erupt in confusion and questions (TRS: "A Disquiet Follows My Soul").

His fate in the aftermath of Gaeta's Mutiny and the later Battle of The Colony are unspecified.

Notes

  • The character of Sekou Hamilton was named after one of writer Toni Graphia's former assistants (Source: The Official Companion).
  • Biski Gugushe also plays a reporter named Eick in the episodes "Litmus" and "Six Degrees of Separation," which is a name change as Eick was originally named for series co-producer David Eick before he was officially named in dialogue in "Colonial Day."
  • His colony of origin, using the earlier variant spelling of "Aerilon," is noted on his visitor guest pass from his visit aboard Cloud 9 in "Colonial Day."
