Mustapha recently revealed that his mother is very ill and has been diagnosed with cancer (lymphoma), financially devastating the family.
Mustafa opened up about his situation, explaining that he has taken up menial jobs to meet his financial obligations.
He explained that his mother’s medical bills have taken a toll on the family and that he is doing everything he can to raise funds to support her.
“I have been doing this job for over a year now. Things have been bad. My mother is sick. She is battling cancer and so I am looking for all possible ways to raise money just to boost her finances,” he said.
Kenyans have contributed to help the artist get back on his feet.
