The Jubilee Senator, Millicent Nyaboke Omanga, revealed that she made her first Million at 19 and managed to buy her first car at the age of 20. – By Sharon Maina
Millicent said that the money was as a result of supplying bed sheets to a hotel in Eldoret. At that time, she was still a student at The University of Nairobi.
“When I joined University, I started my business, I made my first million when I was 19 years old and by 20 I bought my new car. And even those I was with at the University could tell you Milly was a rich girl and not because I was being given money by my parents. I would use the school, Kidogo, unaenda unanunua vitu, unauza and by the time exam inafika pesa yangu nitakuwa nimeiroll for three months imeleta profit na nimelipa school fees and I continued like that” said Senator Nyaboke,
“…I was selling merchandise, including bed sheets…I’m one of the biggest suppliers of bedsheets in this county up to date…I supplied a hotel in Eldoret called Mariot…that had 60 rooms and my working capital was not that much, so I went to the bank and they only gave me 150K basing on my transactions… so I went and bought the bedsheets and supplied and that’s how I got my first million…I was paid cash” Senator Millicent added.
“Milly of the bedsheets.That is where my story started and it’s still my hustle till today and at 19 years I made my first million. Work is work and it is possible my people #Mothermradi” The Jubilee senator, Millicent Nyaboke, tweeted on her social media platform.
Her story is very inspirational to everyone as she says that everything is possible if you are determined.
This should be a sign to everyone especially the youth that being a millionaire is not impossible and that one should not look down upon any work because that simple job can make you a millionaire.
