The Churchill show comedian Akuku Danger was admitted at Nairobi West Hospital in late December 2021 after he got seriously sick.
Akuku Danger suffers from sickle cell anemia, a chronic condition which lasts through a person’s lifetime.
By the time he was being discharged, Akuku’s bill had accrued to Ksh2 million. A fundraiser was held but didn’t raise the full amount.
The comedian was ultimately discharged from Nairobi West Hospital on January 27th 2022 and allowed to go home even though he owed the facility a lot of money.
Akuku’s girlfriend Sandra Dacha announced on January 28th that the comedian entered into a legal agreement with Nairobi West Hospital to clear his bill within three weeks.
Speaking in a recent interview, Akuku wholeheartedly thanked friends who came through when he was sick.
“My friends came through for me, I can never thank God enough for them. I can’t mention all of them but they did a wonderful job,” Akuku told Mpasho.
He further lamented that some fake friends were just waiting for him to die.
“There are people who were waiting for me to die. I could tell there were people who were only waiting for me to wake up ndio wanajifanya busy na mimi. There were so many fake friends. Deep situations expose fake friends.”
