What you need to know:

  • Actress Jackie Matubia has been around the block and has appeared in several Kenyan films.
  • Her breakthrough into the limelight came with her appearance on the once-popular TV show Tahidi High a decade ago.

 1. I joined Tahidi High when I was barely 18. I had just sat for my KCSE exams when I got the call to join the show. I began as an extra before I became a main character.

2. Before seating for my final exams, the Tahidi crew had visited our school and when they asked who would speak on behalf of the students, the students shouted my name. My nickname at school was Jackie Celeb.
