- From a troubled childhood to becoming a millionaire, Isaac Miheso’s life once looked like a true success story written against all odds
- That was until love entered his life and slowly began to unravel everything he had built so carefully over the years
- What followed was a painful financial collapse and a return to the very struggles he thought he had left behind
Murang’a – Born in Nairobi’s Huruma estate, Isaac Miheso had a nomadic childhood as his parents kept relocating due to family issues.

The back-and-forth made it impossible for him to concentrate in school, so he dropped out and started doing manual labour.
Miheso’s rise to millionaire
During this period, he was offered a job by his uncle, who ran different businesses, exposing him to entrepreneurship.

He soon started his own eatery, which expanded into a shop that became the first-ever 24-hour shop in Murang’a town.
Within months, his shop was thriving and turned him into a millionaire, a stark contrast to his humble childhood.

“I got to a point where I had so much money it was easy for me to contribute even KSh 50,000 at once towards church projects,” he noted.
Miheso’s regrettable decision
In 2008, he met and fell in love with a young woman from the village whom he married in an elegant wedding two years later.
“I believed that running the business with my wife would even expand us further, but she started fighting my female customers,” he recalled.
According to him, his wife believed he was having affairs with his customers and female employees because they referred to him as “my dear.”
Since Miheso had taken a loan against his property to expand the business, a dip in sales affected his cash flow.

How Miheso became broke
Before he knew it, his estranged wife had swept his house clean and sent him back to zero, at a point when his shop was also struggling.
“To make things worse, she filed a case against me at the children’s court, which lasted two-and-a-half years,” he continued.
In a verdict that offered him the peace that had eluded him for years, the court ordered them to share responsibilities in raising their child.

However, by the time the reprieve came, he had lost valuable years, and his business was on the verge of collapsing.
How much is Miheso’s debt?
For the next five years, Miheso dedicated his time to serving God and rebuilding his business while giving his first wife a chance to rethink her decision.
In 2020, as the world was struggling with the Coronavirus pandemic, he met another woman and married her five months later.
The disadvantage was that there was a national curfew, and the public’s purchasing power had gone down, so his shop collapsed yet again.
Forced to give up the shop before he was evicted, Miheso is now struggling to repay bank loans worth over KSh 700,000.
