DJ MO,  one of Kenya’s most sought-after and highest paid Gospel Djs, charging hundreds of thousands for a gig, also co-host in NTV’s Crossover show and Broadways bread brand ambassador didn’t have an easy way to the top.
Recently, he shared in a long post his rugs to riches story, mentioning how had to sleep hungry and many other tough things he has gone through he became rich.
He shares his story in order to encourage Kenyans especially those ones struggling in life:
‘God is faithful. One day I will tell you the whole story but first,Â
I grew up in ocha where I did my Primary Education. We moved to Mathare North. Life in the ghetto pushed us so hard. We then relocated to Kware ghetto in Rongai.
I have walked to town from Githu 44 slept outside the door for lack of rent (my mum doesn’t know this), slept hungry, got expelled like 5 times, studied in 4 different high schools and finalized my form 4 in a day school.
I know what life means and I have gone through so much than many can think.
At 30yrs, I have worked really hard to be where I am of course God has been there for me – to a point I have a family now.
So, I’d like to encourage young guys out there. It’s possible to achieve what you want if you put God first and focus. Sometimes don’t work smart work hard. Some of the things I have right now were once a dream (na bado sijafika). Always remember to be a giver, be humble, lift others, be happy for others when they get blessed, pray hard and everything else that exalts God.
The biggest fear I have is pulling others down coz you never know when it might happen to you. One day you or your kids will have to pay for it. Plant a good seed for your kids always.
I share my life with you just to encourage someone. If my life testimony changes only one person and even draws someone to Christ, it’s enough for me.
