Dj Mo has opened up about his past to inspire ‘other lost souls’. The gospel DJ used to behave in a very irresponsible way before he\u00a0turned over a new leaf.<\/p>\n

DJ Mo used to live in penury before the fame and money. The Crossover101 host says his family used to live in informal settlement in the city.<\/p>\n

“God is faithful. One day I will tell you the whole story but first ?. I grew up in Ocha where I did my Primary Education. We moved to Mathare North. Life in the ghetto pushed us so hard. We then relocated to Kware ghetto in Rongai,” wrote DJ Mo in part.<\/p>\n

Walks from Githurai to town<\/h2>\n

DJ Mo while he was still a hustler<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Size 8’s husband says he used to trek from Githurai to town to hustle. He further reveals that he was also locked out of his house for failing to pay rent.<\/p>\n

“I have walked to town from Githu 44 ,slept outside the door for lack of rent (my mum doesn’t know this), slept hungry, got expelled like 5 times, studied in 4 different high schools and finalized my form 4 in a day school. I know what life means and I have gone through so much than many can think.”<\/p>\n

DJ Mo thanks God for his success and encourages other young men that it’s possible to make it in life despite the background one was brought up in.<\/p>\n

“At 30yrs, I have worked really hard to be where I am of course God has been there for me – to a point I have a family now. So, I’d like to encourage young guys out there. It’s possible to achieve what you want if you put God first and focus. Sometimes don’t work smart work hard. Some of the things I have right now were once a dream (na bado sijafika).<\/p>\n

“Always remember to be a giver, be humble, lift others, be happy for others when they get blessed, pray hard and everything\u200b else that exalts God.”<\/p>\n
