This touched many people’s hearts including Njeri Muchina, who through her influence mobilized her followers to contribute any amount in order to offset the bill.
Last night I was going through the TL and I came across a tweet by a guy called Dan, he was asking for guys to contribute for his wife's medical bill at Outspan hospital.
I felt so sad cos he had videos of her and I couldn't stop thinking how terrible lack can be.— Njeri (@NjeriMuchina2) June 2, 2022
“We shall talk about why NHIF is important later but please I’m begging y’all, come through for this family. I know sometimes hata hiyo 50 bob hukosa, but do you know what your RT will do? Please RT widely and send whatever you have to Dan. I will update y’all tumefika wapi,” Njeri said.
Four hours later, Kenyans were able to raise the required amount for the family .
109,350. Thankyou. Lillian will go home to her husband and babies.
Wamesema mbarikiwe sana.
