Fashion model Koin Kores who is known for street modelling in Nairobi CBD has captured the attention of netizens the past few weeks after announcing that he was seriously sick.
Often, he has been seen on TikTok crying his heart out and begging for help to cure what was ailing him.
In an interview, Koin has opened up how he found himself in the situation that turned his life around while at the peak of his career.
Koin met an old mzungu woman through a salon where he was working as an influencer.
The white woman had been one of his fans and approched the owner of the Ronald Ngala-basef salon to get in touch with Koin.
“Kuenda ni mzungu mzee. Huyo mzungu mzee akaniambia tufanye content na yeye,” he said adding that the Mzungu paid him for the job.
Koin said that everything went well the entire time they worked together, unaware of the what was awaiting him by associating with the white woman.
“This is what happened, I met this mzungu in April. She traced me to the salon I was working for. She said she wanted to work with me that is modelling and taking photos.
“But when we sat down to eat and catching up she harmed me. There is a white substance she spiked in my drink that has harmed me healthwise,” the Masai model opened up to Tuko.
According to him, she witnessed him put some white substance on ice cubes that were he was meant to use on the drink. At the time, he had already drank the first glass. He declined to take the second drink following the discovery.
“From that day alikàsirika hatukuwa friends and parted ways ju alijua najua kenye alikuwa anafanya,” he said.
Two days later, Koin says that he started becoming seriously sick till now.
“After taking the substances I began sweating, having fever, confused and stressed. I began having rashes on my tongue and body. I rushed to the hospital where it was found that I had high bacteria in my blood of which I treated with antibiotics but later I began experiencing pain all over my body. I have been to seevral hospitals but I didn’t get help, they just wanted money,” he said.
At Agha Khan Hospital, it was discovered that he has heavy metals in his body.
“And that is what is draining my health,” Koin said as he broke down.
“The metals were many but the one which was highest was Zinc which caused copper deficiency. It causes autoimmune diseases in the body,” he explained.
He added that he is yet to begin treatment for the heavy metals as he ran out of money.
“One of the medicines I was told to buy is chelating copper which is not available in Kenya,” the content creator said.
Koin said that the white woman denied causing him any harm and she is still doing the same thing to other unsuspecting youths in the country.
