Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has gifted social media influencer Nuru Okanga Sh1.3 million to start a business.
Sudi announced this Monday night when the two met on Obinna Tv show.
Apart from the financial support, he further promised to buy a three-bedroom house in Nairobi under the affordable housing program.
Sudi's gesture follows his earlier promise to "change his life" after revealing the challenging living conditions, including showering outside.
"Wewe kama Okanga unataka nikusaidie aje (How do you want me to help you Okang)?"Sudi asked.
"Sema shida zako zote hapa leo. Solution iko hapa, uko na shida gani? Sema zote yeye (Sudi) atakuambia ataona hii na hii (Say all your problems today. The solution is here, what problem do you have? Say it today Sudi will see how to help you)," Obinna stressed.
In response, Okanga said he is the breadwinner in his family and that he has been planning to start a salon for his wife but lacks capital.
"If I get Sh300,000, kwa sababu hiyo ni yake, Niko sawa. Nimkeep busy," he explained.
He went on:
"Mimi kama Nuru Okanga shida zangu zote ni mingi, lakini nataka niende straightforward, kama unaeza nipatia Sh1m maisha yangu itakuwa sana (I have many problems as Nuru Okanga but to be precise, if you give me Sh1 million my life will be okay)," he stated.
According to Okanga, he plans to invest the money in a posho mill, and set up a car yard, a kiosk and a furniture shop at his rural home.
Some Sh300,000, he said, will be used to open a salon for his wife.
"I will go and set up businesses and become stable," he added.
This was, however, challenged with Sudi and Obinna taking him to task on how he will manage all the businesses at once.
"Nuru has never run any business and wants to open five businesses," said Obinna.
The legislator agreed to offer him the money but advised him against opening up all the businesses.
"I will give you the money but don't start small. You can have the posho mill and the car wash first and ensure there is good management and stability before venturing into those others," he said.
