TikToker Azziad Nasenya has explained why she has not relocated to Berlin, Germany, where her family lives.
Speaking in an interview with Mungai Eve, the content creator said every time she wants to relocate, something good happens to her in Kenya.
“I got used to living away from my family but I miss them so much,” she said.
“I was about to relocate but after thinking about it, I changed my mind about it. I was to relocate after Form 4, then something happened. In 2020, I also wanted to relocate but lockdown happened. And this year, in October, I was to relocate but I said no.”
Nasenya said life keeps shifting and the fact that she has created her brand in Kenya, she wants to stay here.
“I love Kenyan food and I also have a lot of personal factors that will make me want to stay in Kenya.”
Azziad Nasenya was in Paris, France, for a gig over the weekend.
“It is amazing to be working with different brands. I am happy that most brands have embraced me,” she said, adding that it is a lot of work.
Nasenya also said that sometimes she skips working with some brands because of her ‘moral values’.
“The brands who want to work with me have to match with my values. I have refused to work with so many of them since we did not connect in terms of values,” she said.
Nasenya graduated with a diploma in broadcast journalism from the Kenya Institute of Mass Communication last month.
She said some of her haters said she bought her ‘certificates’. Nasenya said it was not easy balancing school and work.
“I wake up at 3.30am, go to work and by 10am, I go for meetings and go to school for the evening classes,” she said.
“I have the respect for people who matter to me. I attract the people that matter and I gow ith that. I will continue with school.”
