TTNT success story
The TTNT concept initially started as a small idea but gradually grew to involve more individuals from the entertainment industry.
Following the premiere of TTNT show in 2020, Njugush found himself in a precarious situation, burdened with a staggering debt of Sh6 million that needed urgent repayment.
Unfortunately, pandemic restrictions on public gatherings prevented him from organizing additional events to settle the debt.
One creditor, who had extended a Sh400,000 loan, imposed a steep 30 percent interest rate, adding to the financial strain.
Njugush acknowledged the mistake of seeking a loan from a shylock and lamented the unfavourable terms.
However, the show grew immensely, and he is now milking millions on TTNT. However, the planning takes a lot of meticuluous effort, but the harvest seems great.
