Mzee Kiengei's wife and ex-Kameme FM presenter Keziah Kariuki has revealed that she has an adopted daughter.
She says she adopted the girl during a work-related trip to the arid parts of Kenya. Being a mother, she couldn't imagine the girl dying. Speaking during an interview on Kameme TV she narrated,
"I have four kids, I adopted a child when I found some people dying because of hunger during a work-related project.
I thought of the food we throw in the dustbin and I couldn't let her die.I told God that I wanted to protect her and that she would never go hungry.
The area was a bad one she risked being sexually abused, we are now 10 plus years with her. She was still crawling at the time."
The mother of two says not everyone you work with is your friend.
"I started working with a local media house before being retrenched after two years.
Sometimes you find yourself working with people who are jealous of your progress. After 1 month Anne Ngugi called me as her assistant as she was pregnant at the time. She was fired after 2 weeks, after that I was given her position."
The presenter says losing her mum hit her hard as she was the only one who believed in her.
"I felt very low when my mum died. At the time I was living in Rongai, I used to say I could never die before building my mum a nice house. I had no one to believe in me, It was very hard for me to believe she had passed away."
