Former KTN actor Junior is making serious moves in the United States, and Kenyans are taking notice.
The TV personality, who was once a familiar face on Kenyan screens, turned heads after appearing in a video alongside Kenyan truck driver and fitness influencer Phil at a US truck stop.
Which business does Junior run?
The clip, shared on Monday, November 9, quickly spread online and got people talking.
In the video, Junior gave fans a candid look at the life he has built across the Atlantic. Far from the television sets he was known for back home, he is now running a transport company with three trucks and employed drivers working under him.
“I want to represent Kenya well. I am running my transport company. Young people must work hard,” he said, adding a motivational note for those watching from back home.
If running a trucking business was not ambitious enough, Junior revealed he has his sights set on something even bigger. Speaking to Phil during the encounter, he said he was just two months away from earning his pilot’s licence.
“I have two months to acquire my pilot’s license. I will buy a plane one day,” he said with the kind of confidence that clearly caught his viewers off guard.
When asked about his finances, Junior was equally unapologetic.
” My money is like my hair. I cannot count it,” he quipped, a line that quickly became a talking point in the comments section.
The video drew a wave of responses from Kenyans online, with most celebrating Junior’s hustle. However, one commenter made a pointed observation that stood out from the rest.
