Published on May 6, 2020, Lulu Hassan's life is a testament to her resilience and determination. Born in Mombasa County to a Kikuyu mother with Seychellois roots, Lulu's journey in the media industry began with a chance to work in radio.
Initially trained as a cabin crew hostess, Lulu's career took a dramatic turn when she landed a job in radio. This marked the beginning of her extensive and elaborate career in media, which has seen her become a household name in Kenya.
One of Lulu's most notable ventures is Jiffy Pictures, a company she co-founded with her husband, Rashid Abdallah. The production house has produced some of Kenya's most popular TV shows, including Maria, Pete, Sarafu, Kovu, and Huba, among others.
Despite her success, Lulu's life has not been without its challenges. In 2010, she was involved in a road accident that left her with hip injuries. However, she has continued to thrive in her career, and her determination is an inspiration to many.
As a media personality, Lulu is known for her sense of style and her ability to speak multiple languages. Her exotic heritage has also made her a unique and fascinating figure in the media industry.
With a family of three beautiful children and a loving husband, Rashid Abdallah, Lulu's personal life is just as captivating as her professional one. In a past interview, she revealed that her mother's passing in 2007 left her with a real estate business to manage, which she took over with ease.
