Inject Party Leader Kebaso Morara has opened up about a difficult chapter in his life when poor financial habits nearly pushed him into overwhelming debt.
In a candid interview with a local media house, Morara shared how living an extravagant lifestyle during the early stages of his career led him to mismanage client funds. He confessed that as money started flowing in, he became reckless with his spending — splurging on luxurious items and experiences without a second thought.
“At some point, the temptation to use client deposits became too strong,” he admitted. “I would tell myself that I could always replace the money with the next payment. But it’s a dangerous game.”
This reckless financial behavior eventually caught up with him, leaving him with debts amounting to nearly KSh 2 million. Fortunately, his wife stepped in just when things seemed bleakest. Unknown to him, she had been quietly saving, and she used her savings to clear his debts.
“I had no idea my wife had that kind of savings,” Morara said. “She bailed me out when I needed it most. It was a real wake-up call for me.”
After this experience, Morara vowed never to mix personal finances with client money again. He went on to establish a separate bank account dedicated solely to client deposits, ensuring that he maintained strict financial discipline moving forward.
