Former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has pledged to continue assisting veteran fighter Conjestina Achieng after a devastating photo of her current state went viral this week.
Sonko stated on social media on Saturday that he had sent one of his trucks to Conjestina’s rural house to assist in transporting her to Mombasa for prayers.
Following family meetings, he stated that they had resolved to have Conje, as she was affectionately called, now contemplate prayers after previous rehabilitation efforts had struck a snag.
“I’ve singlehandedly helped her before, taken her to various hospitals & rehab centers including Nairobi County rehabilitation center in Parklands, Diani Beach among others where she gets full recovery and discharged than when she gets back to shags after a while gets worse again,” Sonko stated.
“However despite my busy court schedule and tribulations, I have decided to continue helping her including taking her to Mtumishi prophetess Mary Kagendo for prayers. I am just now dispatching a car with my team to Siaya to facilitate her movement and I’m also humbly appealing to any well-wisher who’s willing to help.”
Conjestina was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder in 2011.
