Kenyans have come to the aid of Esther Njihia, a Nairobi businesswoman who narrated how she was conned Ksh40 million, prompting her to sell porridge in Nairobi.
In a show on Youtube, Njihia expressed gratitude and revealed that Kenyans of goodwill had so far contributed a total of Ksh500,000.
"Over the past seven days, I have received Ksh500,000 and I thank God because I will start my life afresh. My life has changed, now I will not sell porridge anymore. I know God will restore me," she stated.
Njihia, a renowned businesswoman in the early 2000s, imported vehicles, furniture, photocopier machines and building materials from Dubai and in Nakuru.
Her business had grown so much that she was a well known tycoon in Nakuru and had amassed a lot of money.
She would then relocate to Nairobi in a quest to expand her business.
It is at this point that her life changed having been coerced by her friends to invest her money in a company called Desi. Here, they promised that the money would triple.
However, the money never tripled nor did she get what she had initially invested, leading her to accrue losses.
Njihia had attributed her losses to failure of paying tithes and encouraged Christians to pay their dues without fail.
"I have received numerous calls from Kenyans who heard the story. Some have told me that they started paying their tithes and I am happy I impacted someone's life," she concluded.
Following the loss, Njihia had resorted to hawking porridge and arrow roots in Nairobi CBD.
