Politicians unite Kenyans to raise over Sh1m for ailing rapper Miracle Baby
Kenyans from all walks of life, joined by notable politicians, came together last night to raise over Sh 1 million for the ailing former Sailors member, Peter, widely known as Miracle Baby.
The funds will go towards covering medical expenses as Miracle Baby battles a critical health condition that has left him hospitalized for the past two weeks.
Miracle Baby’s hospital bill had soared to Sh1 million, and despite his family’s efforts in contributing Sh200,000, the financial burden was still overwhelming.
The generosity of Kenyans and the timely intervention of Kikuyu artistes played a crucial role in alleviating this burden.
A popular Kikuyu artiste, Karangu Wa Muraya, went live on his Facebook page directly from the hospital where Miracle Baby is receiving treatment.
The live session garnered an impressive 12,000 viewers, with numerous well-wishers expressing their hopes for Peter’s swift recovery.
