Renowned Kenyan content producer Georgina Njenga has marked a significant milestone in her life, one month without consuming alcohol.
In a brief statement on Sunday, the mother of one revealed that she is on a journey to quit drinking alcohol.
She celebrated her ability to resist temptations and stay committed to her goal, expressing a strong desire to reach three months without alcohol.
"1 month of sobriety and I am so proud," Georgina said via her Instagram account.
She added, "Even yesterday (Saturday), which was a simple test that I still managed to avoid. I'm aiming for three months."
The former partner of actor Tyler Mbaya, also known as Baha, was among the fans who attended the Raha Fest concert at Uhuru Gardens Park over the past weekend.
Georgina's journey to sobriety comes at a time when there is a strong fight against alcoholism among the youth, led by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and his wife Dorcas Rigathi.
Last month, the Deputy President reiterated his battle against alcohol, emphasizing that his actions have no political motives.
Speaking in an interview with Inooro TV, he said that he and his wife Dorcas Rigathi have invested their efforts in the fight against the drug as they have also been victims of its harmful effects.
Rigathi emotionally recounted the death of his late brother Jackson Reriani Gachagua, whom he claimed was killed by alcohol.
"My brother Reriani was an alcoholic. I tried to talk to him and plead with him, 'my brother, we are the only ones left, I beg you, please don't leave me alone,' but he didn't listen," Rigathi narrated.
The Deputy President said that the death of his eldest brother left him in a state of sadness because now he has no one to talk to.
"Now when I go back home, I just look at the graves, there's no one to talk to because my sisters are all married. All my sisters are married. In the entire Gachagua family, I'm the only one.
About Reriani, we would still have him, every time I went home, I found someone to talk to. Now I'm alone, I live with the police. I have no one from our family, I have nothing. It's just the police. When I go back home, I just look at the graves," he said.
Rigathi also talked about his wife's brother, Pastor Dorcas, who is also an alcoholic.
He said that many others have been affected by alcoholism but suffer silently.
"When we fight this alcohol, it's not politics. We speak with a lot of pain in our hearts because we have seen how alcohol has hurt us, our neighbors, and our friends," he said.
