Terryanne Chebet’s mother: I had to struggle all alone to bring up my children
While opening up on her journey; business journalist Terryanne Chebet shared how she reacted after being fired by Citizen TV and life after that.
Speaking on Story Yangu, she narrated her tough journey which saw her mother; Rebecca Cherotich, narrate how she struggled with her five children after the demise of her husband.
“My husband had an accident in 1983, he was going to pick the children from school around 1 pm. I had to struggle all alone to bring up these children.They were babies, all of them. My first child was in class two so you can imagine how young Terry was, being the third child,” said Cherotich.
Never saw it coming
Chebet has shared several times how she reacted after being fired at Citizen TV. She once again shared the incident during the Maisha Magic East’s Story Yangu, saying that she never expected it at all.
“I was sure there was no way I could be retrenched” she stated. “I went straight to my room, locked it and cried. Unajua ile crying ya sauti ya ushago? Over 100 of us were fired but everyone’s attention was focused on me.”
