Kenyan Radio Presenter Fired in Rwanda

Rose, a popular Kenyan radio presenter in Rwanda, was loved for her fun personality. But one Thursday morning changed everything.

She was caught at work with a bottle of whisky by her supervisor and was fired on the spot for being drunk, shocking her fans and colleagues.

Wanting to clear her name, Rose first went to the labour inspector and then took her case to intermediate court, hoping to get her job back.

Unfortunately, both attempts failed when the court decided that being drunk at work was a good reason for her dismissal.

Just like that, one bad choice ended her career.
