Social media personality Azziad Nasenya has joined a star-studded cast of a new drama series that is set to premiere soon.
The series dubbed ‘Pink Ladies’ is headlined by Azziad (Cecilia), Shix Kapienga (Trizah), Doreah Chege (Anne), Pascal Tokodi (Charlie) among other thespians.
Pink Ladies revolves around four single women who find themselves navigating the complexities of life, friendship, relationships, career and finances.
State job
The new acting gig comes months after Azziad Nasenya and other big celebs including Akothee, Churchill and others lost plum government appointments.
Youths Affairs, Sports and Arts Cabinet Secretary (CS) Ababu Namwamba in June 2023 revoked the appointment of Azziad and others from the Talanta Hela Council and Technical Committees.
The announcement was made by the CS through a gazette notice dated June 9, 2023.
“It is notified for general information of the public that the Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts has revoked Gazette Notice No. 1649 of 2023. Dated the 7th June 2023,” the gazette notice reads in parts.
The move came barely weeks after the High Court suspended the implementation of the initiative where its appointees were to serve for a period of three years.
Even though she lost the plum government job, Azziad has been making major moves through brand endorsement and recently the acting gig.
Azziad shot to fame in 2020 due to her viral TikTok video dancing to the ‘Utawezana’ hit song by Femi One and Mejja.
Since her rise to fame, Azziad has ventured into acting, appearing in Kenyan television shows and films.
Azziad’s rise to fame showcases the power of social media and how a single video can lead to widespread recognition and opportunities in the entertainment industry.
