- Grace Akinyi holds many titles. She is a mother, a former lecturer at Kenya Polytechnic and an ex-convict who served 7 years at Langata Prison center for drug trafficking.
When her husband started cheating on her and stopped providing for his family, she was determined to maintain the same lifestyle she had and was not ready for her friends to start talking.
Then one of her so called "friend" noticed her level of desperation and introduced her to a business she regrets to date.
Here is Lynn Ngugi with today's episode of Tuko Talks

@@njndox7252 true, Lynn is very good, lakini let's support boy child too.
I feel like she was a great lecturer..wangapi wanakubali?🥰🥰
Yes she lectured me in food production in poly. A very good teacher
True
Don't feel, she was my lecturer Ms Otieno, a great Lecturer we loved her!!
Yes she was a great lecturer. Lectured me. In Catering theory...
She was among my favourite lecturer in Kenya polytechnic then, in food n production
She was a very good lecturer at Kenya poly those days. She was my leacturer. I still love and respect her as my teacher.
Waaaat
Nice to know Patty
Same hear dear
I admires her mode of dressing very smart chef always.
Me too.. Smart with her chef's uniform
I just love his mama, she has own up to her mistakes...that is the first step of recovery and asking for forgiveness...any likes for this gorgeous luo lady...
True
Ive noticed that Everytime this woman mentioned her Mommy she gets emotional 😭😭Mother's are gifts from heaven ❤️
Indeed,I think I died the day I buried mine
I thanks have known you were innocent
What about fathers?
Not all mothers
@@mzee5533
Fathers are our pillars.
Our family priests.
The source of our blessings.
Her Voice is so deep, so rich, so beautiful. Luos and their beautiful voices 😍
Soo so true
I imagine her a music teacher...very beautiful and rich voice...
@@Sofia-wx2ht I agree kabisa
I love Luos ❤️❤️❤️
What an old man sees when sitted,a young man can't see when standing...Lesson Learnt
I love this saying.
True
Fact
My uncle always tells me this,,Long live uncle wise saying
Always listen to your parents...
Hello people from Kenya. You sound and look beautiful. With love from Johannesburg, 🇿🇦
Very touching story..I was a class teacher to her son,the child was troubled before we realised what was happening..he was living with a family friend to his mum...who came to school and confided in me ..then we visited grace at langata....lm glad to see this now ..God is great.
That's WHY its important for Schools to have full time counsellors to cater for troubled students..both public and private .
Very needful.
Why are you mentioning that about her son? Where is confidentiality from teachers?
@@tobym2200 exactly my thought.
Data protection
Could you please withdraw, this is private
Aki madam Grace was my neiboughr in nairobi. Then I was very young, I dint understand life in general. Having watched this now, am so sorry for what you went through and God is faithful. May God bless Madam Lyn, madam Grace and tuko talks. I learn alot from tuko talks.
I have an advice to the kenyan lawmakers, please make a law that makes such people wakue wanafundisha our schools instead ya kupoteza such educated persons
It's a.great lesson
I like the program but some of us don't speak Kenyan language. Is a lesson for everyone. Can you please help in English.?
Nimekwama hapo kwa Kamiti boys and Langata girls, lets give them likes 🔥🔥🔥
This is the lady that i know,we ever met for several times,she is very humble ,respective and down to earth,All the best Grace,let us support her on her channel,she is a good soul.
The government needs to take the issue of child support seriously. If she knew her children would be supported she would have walked out earlier.
I agree am in the same situation @tukotalks
I agree. Too many deadbeats and too many many single mamas are really suffering.
You have 47womenrep what are they doing?
We really need to reemphasize this conversation
@@lukasochola576 .mr Ochoa the women rep are busy, with ben tens.
Very authentic. Most of the time it takes an experience to impact a generation. She's doing great right now but I believe she can also build an organization that helps former prisoners integrate back to the community. She will get funding for this and she'll create huge impact in so many people's lives.
I believe so too. She's brilliant and very talented. She can make a great impact if she wishes to continue the good work she started in jail unless it's too painful a reminder for her😰
I agree with you!
I totally agree with this! She could push for prison reforms too
@@superloleo7160 h
Amen 🙏
She was a parent to one of my learners in a school that I'll not mention. I never got to meet her but her kid narrated the story to me in tears. I had to comfort her and counsel her. I told her sometimes bad things happen to us, we are not able to explain and sometimes it's not our fault
Poleee
God bless you for being there for your friend her daughter.
Perhaps as a teacher to her to the child you should respect the child's trust. It is a mistake for you to make a comment from this.
Are you related to one Grace Munyi?
@@greenhouse9833 no names were mentioned. I don't see any problem with her writing this statement. 😳
Gladys is a gorgeous queen, she took accountability of her behaviours and changed her story👌❤️hopefully young people will learn from this... keep winning queen.
You are always the first one
Wanjiru Muya 😂😂sijawai kukosa hizi Street, sure hope watu watalearn through this
Muya wewe ni shujaa wa tuko talks.!
Wanjiru i like how you always have good positive comments. I see your comments all the time and before i even read them i already know there will be wisdom in your comment. Keep it up sis!
Wewe ni fun unafaa uwe recognised.
Wow! Very eloquent. She can be a motivator and teacher. Her story teaches us all what not to do. She would be very instrumental in schools teaching the youth on avoiding drugs. Thank you Lynn
kabisa
I agree
Those guys don't deserve any better, they should abstain from crimes
Absolutely. A great teacher and mentor
Surely, there are dangerous people in this world how could someone do this to an innocent person
I love this lady....she took responsibility of what she did and didn't stop there...used the bad that happened to her to be a blessing to others..may God bless her.
She is also a good story teller
I noted that early on as well. A mark of maturity.
Word power of the day,,, "Don't trust people"She is a good mentor Hugs Mom🤗🤗🤗May her Mother soul Rest In Peace 🙏🙏
True
Waaaaoooh, i admire you mami, keep it up encourage the youth, there is lady Lynn hosted from kibera, her 1st born son is in drugs i dont well remember her name,but if possible kindly find her n her 3kids, help the 14year boy out of it if possible please
I'm sorry for what happened to her. She got in trouble because she wanted to take care of her children. May God bless you all moms.
She was my lecturer at poly and she taught me housekeeping
Amen
Thank you for sharinng your inspiring past I was once introduced to that biz in 2013 by a frnd but I refused when I remembered am a single mother and no one else my 4yrs old daughter was looking up to expt me myself and I...through my spiritual eye I saw jail and alot of suffering in it...Glory to God am blessed now more than I could never imagine then one step at a tim by faith God never leave you
This lady is strong. She is the right person to talk to our youngsters especially on matters drugs. Do not blame yourself my sister, the circumstances forced you.
One thing I admired with my former lecturer...she has never pretended,she maintain positive attitude even when she was in langata prison...you are an amazing woman...may you inspire many
This is a painful story yet very inspiring. @Lynn, Saga has not recovered from her pain. She needs a bit of help.
You may escape irresponsibility but you can never escape the consequences of irresponsibilities. Thank you Lynn for always airing this stories they are very educative
Very true
💯💯
Grace you have inspired me. I was about to join the drug delears this coming week. You have save my life. Erokamano aiinya
Are you for real
@@gracewanjakamau5216 ask her again
Oooh no
Eti nini mama Diva?🤔
Amen
Moms are angel’s.Listen to your mom ladies n gentlemen
I remember her story was once aired on a national tv back then, good to see her now out of those bars... jail is full of innocent pple aki
She's not innocent, she admitted she did it.
@@jaynenjenga3718 main deal was precious stones en not drugs
.
@@jaynenjenga3718
Really? As in?
@@pendochristfarian2606 what' you talking about?????
This is a good woman who landed in the wrong place due to desperate circumstances
Naivety is bliss
Madam Akinyi is my former lecture at Kenya poly. Thank God, He saw you through prison. Thanks for sharing your story.
Wow i heard this lady's story kitambo, she even gave a testimony in Church when she was released from Lang'ata women's prison. She is so inspiring!
Be careful with friends or people you trust!
True
I have learnt alot, thanks to Grace.
Wenye wameona notification Waka click immediately kama mimi muinue mikono 😂
✋
Wacha tulike
Grace is collected and soft spoken, I love her.
She is damn beautiful 😍, she sounds so cool ,she is healing gradually ,I totally understand her when she breaks in to tears
I studied with your daughter Sylvia, I miss her so much. She was full of joy and happiness. We never understood your story back then coz we were younger. I hope life favored her❤❤
Tuko nae Italy Sylvia wake huyu Mama mzuri sana missing u dear
@@angelageofrey9756 love, light and peace to her
❤️❤️
Tuko have been an institution for learning to many people. When it comes to life experiences,marriage life and also counselling. Myself since i became a tuko fan i have learnt a lot,may God bless Tuko and it's staff.
Its another school we learn through other pple experiences...
You have encouraged many.Jail is not the end of life.
T
Children of women in prison. Start a nonprofit to help them. We shall support you.
Thumbs up for the government of America that lobied for her release
Thats why God tells us to remember those who are in prison and pray for them
Mrs Otieno my lecture we still love you
One thing life has taught me is to NEVER prove anything to anyone...pole mama.
She told her story systematically, chronologically and fluently...good thing is that that woman who set her up got her Karma... what a happy ending
Lesson learnt, 1.don't trust people out there. 2. Never magnify your problems either through dirty deals or engaging in drugs and alcohol to reduce stress. 3. Learn to listen to old people and advice, kiherehere will put you in a bad place in the society. 4. The person you think is perfect for you to marry might be the worst, this issue of tall dark and handsome is not always the gateway to happy marriage. 4.when you are struggling, accept the situation and work on it well, the idea of protecting your name and image ndio watu wasiongee will lead us to the grave. MAY THE ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU. at least you used the stones that life threw at you to build something beautiful and that's was your turning point
Have learned a lot,,I will continue raising my sons with a little I get,,, thank Grace for shearing,, this is the beginning of your healing,,,be blessed Lynn
Women go through a lot in life.God strengthen them daily.
She looks beautiful l love her voice l think she can be a musician.forget the past and let it go you have a bright future ahead on you.God help me to know my real friends.
Very true worship songs infact
Imagine the thousands of Kenyans she has inspired through her life. I think government should pay her
You can learn a million lessons from Tuko. It's a channel that comes with some of the most eye-opening human stories.
The only thing that starts from up is a grave😂we all have to start from somewhere pole pole tuomoke on our way up❤️
Sure
Word
Yeah so true..pole pole and eventually we will get there..
Tru spoken 😊🥰
Well said Wanjiru. You like Tuko and KDM😉😉
Whenever she mentioned her mum...the pain ...hakuna kama mama...hugs dear you are such a strong woman...hats off
How does going to jail disqualify her from being a lecturer now?. Let her be employed and her book be read in high school to caution future generations
Some countries like the USA have it that once you go to jail ona crime like this, it is considered as a felony and so you can’t get a government job. I’m not sure about Kenya but I believe most governments once this happens you can not be considered for a job..Tom Opiyo, Pennsylvania, USA
@@wuodkabar which is very stupid
@@wuodkabar yeah because of conduct akiaply imeharibika
It's in Code of conduct of TSC, once jailed you loose your job
Please if you can find Lynn tell her to talk to her she will tell her, what is her problem be blessed all.
When the deal is too good think twice. This quote reminds me of the late journalist Wahome Mūtahi aka whispers.
The state of Kenyan prisons should be improved.
Some friends are fake and we should pray God to give us best friends indeed...that friend introduced her to drugs wasn't a good mentor to Grace.Ruined her life but God of second chance freed her.
Click on closed captions - bottom left of screen
The witch doctor who was involved in encouraging drug trafficking should be held accountable as well
Am so proud of you Aunty Judy, it takes a lot of courage to be able to speak about a haunting past. May God guide you through life and I wish you all the best life has to offer..You are one of my favorite aunts and I love you so much🥰🥰🥰
Kwani what happens to the funds assigned to prisons? Despite their mistakes, they're still human.
Grace is very sincere. If only we can listen to our parents, regrets in life would be minimal. She had a great Mother whose name i wont mention here. Its Grace mother that encouraged me to join a reputable college that has made me the person i am today. Thanks for sharing your story Grace.
She is emotional when it comes to talk about the mum,but she is still gorgeous inspite of that she can find a smile...love the jokes of kamiti boys writing to langata girls
Jail is not a joke enyewe. As much as it's jail, it should still be in reasonable condition aki🥺
True. In the west jail is not for the dead as it is in Africa!
Sad state! I understand they have done some reformation moody Awoli era
Who told them to do crime?
@@susankariuki449 so you are perfect....I love that
@@susankariuki449 remember jail holds both the guilty and the innocent. You never know where you will be the next minute.
I love two things about Grace, her honesty and her voice
Soo sad she passed on before you were released. Been holding my breath, praying u came out and found her. Take heart my sister.
I too. I just feel connected to this story.
The way the media demonized her and we followed suit is just bad. Pole Akinyi.
was it aired?
I always tell people that before you get married hire a private investigator. A person is their past. What they did to their ex they will do to you
yes dear
True but imagine if everyone was to do that. Life will stand still
😂😂 private investigator
This will kill you na hutawahi pata anyone ever...just go with whom you choose. Ukiona red flags kimbia sana
Wa wa wa! Your comment is so true!!
I TELL,, EVERYTHING HAPPENS WITH A REASON, AND WHO IS GOD YOU PEOPLE,,HE IS A WONDERFUL AND FAITHFUL GOD,A MAVELOURS GOD💪
This story is an eye opener.
Always live ur life....Don't live to impress others.thanx Grace for enlightening me🙏🙏
True
That she can now laugh is deep, freedom is everything.
Madam you are a hero to other women like me who almost fell in the trap. For me i lost 800k. You are an inspiration to many of your students who respect you.
I just love the way this lady tells her story. It should really be adapted to a movie!
🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 she’s strong mum…. And people should learn to listen and share with parents…
When someone wrongs you...walk away. Accept to be the loser...start over.
True, people try revenge and they end up murdering and doing other wrong things
That's true
Out of all this I have learnt one thing ! Mama ndo kila kitu ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏾. God protect all mothers out there . For my mother sijui nikupe nini 😭🙏
Earlier this year i slept on a cold cell courtesy of a good friend someone i know from childhood in the name of helping me secure a job abroad. Lets redefine this name friend
Woiyeeee
Pole sana mrembo
Pole sana I also don't trust friends 100 %heri ukue careful
So you pple still have friends..??? Wooiii sorry dear
Gosh what? Pole sana
One mistake one goal...only God knows our tommorrow😥🇹🇿🇹🇿
This is so emotional i cried,Tuko is an eye opener to alot of people,am sorry for what you went through Grace everything happens for a reason.
She was lucky she was caught in Kenya and not India.
Depression+Desperate= Danger
Hurry hurry has no blessings ,waswahili walisema...
Grace has great heart, I like the way she is calm n ready to educate people. Always shortcuts brings tribulations in in our life .Let's earn money through our own sweat.
Marry the wrong person and your whole life turns into a nightmare! If her husband had been committed to his marriage, she wouldn't have ended up in that situation.
Very true
The worst thing to happen to anyone
Don't ever stick in a bad relationship. Walk out ASAP
Right
@@stevewaves6776 sometimes leaving is hard because they're afraid of what the society will say, pia kids are used to a certain lifestyle and you can't offer them with your salary alone... inabidi ukae .
The fact that she can talk about it she will be fine ❤️❤️
What comes easy goes.....
Hahhaha haiya pia wewe uko huku

She looks just like my mum whose name is also Grace . So beautiful. What a great story teller she is . Sad but so inspirational. God bless her. May God restore the years in her life that were destroyed by the locusts and canker work in Jesus name .
