Mary-Ann Musangi is Chris Kirubi’s daughter but the stunning 46 year old is a business woman who owns the Olpul restaurant at the Two Rivers Mall and is a holder of an MSc in Management from the University of Surrey.
She had for 15 years been in branding management at Coca-Cola, KCB, GlaxoSmithkline and Ogilvy & Mather before venturing into the murky waters of entrepreneurship.
Ms Musangi is a mother, a wife and a director at Sidian Bank and sits on various boards.
The business woman had a sit down with Jackson Biko and revealed that she is her father’s daughter.
”We’re similar in character. The work ethic, the stubbornness. My dad is always pushing it. He’s a man who should have retired by now but he will not. Every day he gets to more boards, more organisations, he gets called to other countries to talk about Kenya; the economic environment, the business environment… so he can’t stop, he won’t stop. I don’t think he should. If he still has a lot to give, he should continue giving.”
Ms Musangi also said that she too gets angry with people telling lies about her father.
”You would too if someone wrote untrue things about your family, wouldn’t you? But you grow a thick skin and learn to ignore the untruths.”
Mary-Ann also said that she hopes to have a chain of restaurants. Clearly, the apple does not fall from the tree.
