Sarah Mtalii, the Kenyan businesswoman and founder of the Virtuous Woman foundation, has announced that she will be traveling to Malaysia for a special award event. The award, set to take place on February 14th in Kuala Lumpur, recognizes her dedication to women’s empowerment through her foundation.
In a recent interview on Hot 96, Sarah shared that she would be accompanied on the trip by her lawyer, Peter Mwenda Njagi, who is also handling her ongoing divorce case with her estranged husband and business partner, Simon Kabu. The decision to bring her lawyer was significant for Sarah, as she revealed that he is not only her legal support but also a key figure in her personal and professional life.
“My lawyer is my strength, my number-one cheerleader,” Sarah said. “He is the one who swoops in to save the day whenever I feel overwhelmed.” She further explained that Mwenda has been a reliable business partner, helping her navigate through challenging times. While they will stay in separate hotels during the trip, Sarah emphasized the importance of having a strong support system as a woman, especially when facing such personal and legal challenges.
Sarah’s trip to Malaysia and her collaboration with Peter Mwenda Njagi underscore the significance of resilience, collaboration, and support systems in overcoming adversity. As Sarah continues to push forward with her business ventures and charity work, the trip to Malaysia represents not just a professional achievement, but also a personal victory amid her tumultuous separation.
For Sarah, this award is not just a recognition of her efforts, but a celebration of the strength and empowerment she champions through her foundation.
