Citizen TV News anchor Yvonne Okwara Matole recently made headlines for her interview with presidential candidate DP William Ruto. This has not only elevated her status as a journalist but also boosted her financial worth. However, what many people may not know is that Okwara’s path to success has been far from smooth.
Okwara revealed that her first job was at Walker’s Restaurant in Reinsurance Plaza, where she worked as a waitress. She shared on social media that she earned only Ksh 150 a day. Despite the long hours and hard work, Okwara expressed gratitude for the lessons she learned during her time at the restaurant, such as the importance of respect and a friendly attitude.
Her Facebook post inspired others to share their own first job experiences and offered a reminder that everyone starts somewhere. Another interesting fact about Okwara is that she is private about her personal life, but she did share a post about her brother, who has a disability. She also got married to her husband Andrew Matole in December 2014.
In conclusion, Okwara’s journey to the top has been a combination of hard work, humility, and a willingness to learn from every opportunity. Her story serves as inspiration for others to never give up on their dreams and to be proud of their starting point in life.
