Linda Oguttu made a remarkable impact on Kenyan television screens as a news reporter and anchor from 2012 to 2021, having worked at both NTV and KTN.

In 2017, Linda became a topic of discussion when she faced suspension from KTN, amid rumors suggesting it was due to alleged indecent dressing.

Background & Education

Linda Oguttu, born in January 1988, hails from Bondo Sakwa in Kaakudi Village, Siaya County. While information about her mother and siblings remains undisclosed, Linda's personal journey has been shaped by moments of joy and challenges.

Tragically, Linda experienced the heartbreaking loss of her father to lung cancer on March 6th, 2016, at Meridian Hospital in Nairobi West.

Career

Linda began her career in 2012 at NTV, where she secured a fortunate opportunity. Later, she transitioned to KTN and continued her work there until 2021.

On November 19, 2021, Linda made the decision to depart from the Standard Group in order to focus on her new role in the sports sector. She shared this news with her fans through her social media accounts.

In November 2021, Linda Oguttu was appointed as the head of the Football Kenya Federation caretaker committee by former Sports CS Amina Mohamed.

Net Worth

While Linda's net worth remains undisclosed, her work in the media industry, especially at KTN, has likely contributed significantly to her wealth.

Apart from her media career, Linda has also been involved in the sports sector, serving as the chair of the Football Kenya Federation caretaker committee, appointed by former Sports CS Amina Mohamed on November 11, 2022.

Although Linda made an unsuccessful attempt to secure the position of Chief Administrative Secretary (CAS), had she been appointed, she would have been entitled to a monthly salary of Sh765K.

Family and Husband

Linda Oguttu is married to Nairobi-based businessman Dennis Mambo. Together, they have a daughter named Amira Christa Mwangeka.

Linda openly shares their experiences, and in January, she revealed that her daughter had expressed a desire for a Gucci bag as her birthday present. However, Linda mentioned that she would not fulfill that specific wish, aiming to teach her daughter that life is not always smooth sailing.
