Work in Lebanon

Lilian Cheruto loves her job as a caregiver in Lebanon. However, she revealed that she arrived in the country as a cleaner.

Via a TikTok livestream, she revealed that lady luck shined on her, and she got the caregiver job, ditching the cleaning.

This was after a video of a mzungu woman holding her tightly in a viral video ignited mixed reactions.

Kenyans wondered whether she enjoyed her job or if the mzungu woman made it difficult.

Lilian, however, clarified that she and the elderly mzungu woman were besties, and she loved to play a lot.

In the viral clip, the TikToker washed dishes as the woman held onto her.
