Terryanne wrote on her twitter;

”A very short story. I’m all about shooting your shot, but not when you’re actively job hunting. Got an inbox, good candidate, mailed him to book an interview, only to scroll up on IG to see messages he’d been sending me, which I hadn’t seen. The End. Like, The End”

Most people have reacted to tweet. Some say that it’s not peculiar for a potential employee to shoot his shot to his employer; while some are sorry for the young man for losing an opportunity because of his thirst.

When my sister first told us about a young man who wanted to marry her, we were so keen to meet him because we knew he was a lucky man. @ericouma asked Jerop to be his wife and he quickly became my mother’s favourite son, and we gained an amazing and humorous brother. Yesterday, after a long illness bravely borne, Eric went to be with the Lord. We will sorely miss you, you went too soon but God needed you home. Jerop and the kids will deeply miss you. We may never understand why, but we keep our trust in the Most High. Thanking all of you who stood by us as we fund-raised for Eric’s treatment in India last year and Thank you to the many of you who kept praying and keeping Jerop’s family in your thoughts . May God keep you and bless you!

See the photos below:

While millions of Kenyan parents are relying on free primary education to put their kids in public schools, rich Kenyans are forking out million of shillings annually to educate their children.

Former Citizen TV anchor Terryanne Chebet spends 2.1 million shillings annually on her daughter’s school fees. Terryanne’s 12-year-old daughter Imani is a pupil at Pembroke House.

“What a beautuful weekend. ? yummy mummying #ndume7s rugby tournament at my daughter’s school. She’s playing touch rugby!!!So cool!. ???,” wrote Terryanne Chebet when she visited Imani at her school.

Fee structure

At Pembroke House the termly fee for pupils aged 3-8 years is Kes 726,600. The school however offers discounts for parents who have two or more children at the school.

October 26th 2016 was the day Terryanne Chebet received retrenchment letter from Citizen TV. The mother of two has since risen to be a CEO after close to two years of unemployment.

Royal Media Services (RMS) carried out a major restructuring in October 2016. Over 100 employees were sent packing as the media house said difficult business environment in the broadcast industry had cut revenues.

Terryanne Chebet was among RMS journalists laid off in the restructuring. The retrenchment saw the likes of Kirigo Ng’arua also sent packing.

Chebet has since being appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of Fanaka Television, the first 24 hour Business Television Channel in Kenya.

“Business Television is my life. It is with humility and lots of enthusiasm that I am proud to accept my appointment as the Chief Executive Officer of Fanaka Television, the first 24 hour Business Television Channel in Kenya. We will cover business and the economy in a way that has never been done in Kenya. In this endeavour, we have embarked on a global benchmarking tour to set our standards to match the best of the best in business journalism,” wrote Terryanne Chebet.

Bench-marking tour

Terryanne and her team flew to Johannesburg, South Africa for a bench-marking trip. They visited CNBC Africa office where Terryanne used to work before she joined Citizen TV.

“Today my team conducted an extensive benchmarking tour of CNBC Africa and Forbes Africa Magazine here in Johannesburg . We look forward to collaborating with sister Business Tv’s in Africa and beyond. Welcome to Fanaka Television where we are guided by our motto ‘Strictly Business’. What a pleasure to once again reconnect with Roberta Naicker, MD CNBC Africa after sooo many years and the very funny Chris Bishop who I worked with during my days at CNBC Africa,” wrote Terryanne.

Terryanne Chebet is marvelled by how random people still feel pity for her a year after she was fired from Citizen TV. The mother of two has been able to turn the tide despite all that happened.

Chebet has done more ever since she left Citizen TV – she bought her dream car and her business is booming. But some people don’t know about this, they thinks she is struggling.

The former Citizen TV anchor opened up about how people treat her in the streets. She says random strangers console for the job loss.

“Until today, I walk in places and even the security guards tell me ‘Terryanne, aki pole sana. Usijali, Mungu ako na plan’. I would get strong, then I get into the car and the tears come, but I had to look strong at that time. It has taken a long while but I have had a very strong support from some group of friends, and my family was right there for me from the beginning. It was difficult and the most emotional period I have ever gone through in my life,” said Terryanne Chebet.

Fallback plan

Terryanne was not adversely affected by the October 2016 retrenchment. She reveals that she had two businesses which cushioned her when she was shown the door.

“I had a fallback plan, I had two business plans. You know such things when they come, you want to deal with them privately, but this was too public and most people knew about it,” says Terryanne Chebet.

Terryanne Chebet was fired from Citizen TV in October 2016. The mother of two is set to make television comeback after 15 month absence from our TV screens.

Terryanne achieved a lot for the year she has been out of job. She bought her dream vehicle Range Rover Evoque  and coincidentally gave birth to her second baby Talaa exactly a year after she was fired from Citizen TV.

The comeback

The former Citizen TV anchor is set for a major television comeback. Terryanne is set for return on our screens as the host of an entrepreneurship competition show that is set to air soon.

GoGettaz Entrepreneurship Contest is the biggest entrepreneurship competition in Africa. Two lucky winners will each pocket a whopping Kes 10 million.

Terryanne is all excited about hosting the new show which will air on Kwese TV. She expressed her joy on social media as she announced her comeback.

Dreams are valid. Terryanne Chebet has finally brought her baby home after five long years of waiting. The former Citizen TV anchor is the owner of brand new Range Rover Evoque Santorini Black.

Terryanne Chebet has been posting photos of Range Rover Evoque on her Instagram handle for years. The former TV girl openly expressed her desire to own the British machine.

“I spent some time this afternoon getting inspired by powerful automobiles at @RMAKenya The 5 door #Evoque continues to steal my heart, always a #Rovergirl…I saw some beautiful jaguars as well. My heart beats for this 2.0 litre compact SUV ( ok and imani, and the farmer, and…never mind?)I digress. The #Evoque is both sexy & powerful… though my fellow petrolhead Ramah Nyang @rnyang thinks the #Fpace would be the better bet … What do you think? The Evoque or the Jaguar F-Pace? #Rangerover #jaguar #carsofinstagram #rover” Terryanne Chebet wrote on August 31st 2017.

The former Citizen TV anchor has been saving to buy her dream car. She opened up about her bucket list on October 9th 2017.

“New week inspiration. Every day gives us a new opportunity to achieve our dreams! #Bucketlist a step closer to the #RangeRoverEvoque ❤ #victoriabeckham,” wrote Terryanne Chebet on October 9th.

Dream become reality

Terryanne dream of owning Range Rover Evoque finally became real over the past weekend. The mother of two announced she had finally bought the British machine.

“In 2012 while on a working trip to Beijing I chanced upon news that Victoria Beckham was also in Beijing to launch the special edition #Evoque. There, as a young( ish) journalist my over ambitious dreams to own one were born. To say that dreams come true is an understatement. The Santorini Black may have taken forever to come home, but not once did I give up on believing I would one day own it. #Blackonblack. #Godwins at @rmakenya #RangeRoverEvoque ? @photographybyjunejuly ? @zara ? Mocha  Baby: Mine. ?,” Terryanne Chebet wrote.

The former Citizen TV anchor parted with millions of shillings to buy the British machine. Evoque retails at Kes 5.4 million on international market but in Kenya the figure is much higher.

Terryanne Chebet delivered a bouncing baby girl three weeks ago. The former Citizen TV anchor says God has an incredible sense of humor because her daughter was born exactly a year after she was fired from Citizen TV.

Royal Media Services (RMS) carried out a major restructuring in October 2016. Over 100 employees were sent packing as the media house said difficult business environment in the broadcast industry had cut revenues.

Terryanne Chebet was among RMS journalists laid off in the restructuring. The retrenchment saw the likes of Kirigo Ng’arua also sent packing.

Contrasting coincidence

October 26th 2016 was the day Terryanne received retrenchment letter from Citizen TV. October 26th 2017 was the day Terryanne gave birth to her second daughter.

The mother of two can’t help but laugh at the contrasting coincidence. The October 26th date reminded her of the retrenchment until her daughter was born on the same date a year later.

“A mother’s joy begins when new life is stirring inside… When a tiny heartbeat is heard for the very first time, and a playful kick reminds her that she is never alone…. She arrived on the 26th of October. On the exact date last year I received a letter informing me of my retrenchment. Is it just a co-incidence? God does have an incredible sense of humour. I am truly and deeply thankful,” wrote Terryanne Chebet.
