Kenyan YouTuber and comedian 2Mbili has made a heartfelt plea to his fellow celebrities and the public to come together and support fellow creative Mwana Mtule, who is currently battling a serious illness at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH).
Mtule, a singer, is reportedly suffering from the effects of poisoning he allegedly suffered at a friend’s house weeks ago. His condition has deteriorated to the point where he is unable to move any part of his body.
The situation is further compounded by the mounting medical bill, which has reached Sh393,524. This has led to a halt in Mtule’s treatment, as the hospital is unwilling to proceed without a significant reduction in the outstanding balance.
2Mbili, who recently visited Mtule at KNH, expressed his dismay at the lack of support from the singer’s friends and colleagues in the entertainment industry. He urged them to step up and assist Mtule in this time of dire need.
“Wasanii (artists), the same way we rush to Chef Maliha’s house when she cooks pilau, let’s rush to KNH. We’re losing a brother. The poison is slowly killing him in Ward 10B after the facility stopped attending to him because his bill is too high and no effort is made to bring it down!” 2Mbili wrote in a passionate appeal.
He encouraged the public to contribute to Mtule’s medical expenses via Paybill number 891300, Account 84711. Any amount, no matter how small, could make a world of difference in saving Mtule’s life.
Mtule’s wife, Celestine, also echoed the call for support, highlighting the urgency of the situation. “The situation here is getting worse because treatment is being stopped because of the huge bill,” she explained.
2Mbili’s plea has already garnered some positive responses, with YY comedian YY contributing Sh50,000 towards Mtule’s admission fee at KNH. However, the overall medical bill remains a daunting challenge.
The Kenyan creative community and the public at large are urged to unite in solidarity with Mwana Mtule and help him overcome this difficult period. Every contribution, big or small, will bring him closer to recovery and a brighter future.
