Ailing Media personality Jahmby Koikai has revealed that Facebook Impostors have been using one of her photos while in Hospital to solicit money from innocent Kenyans without her consent.
According to Jahmbi, who is undergoing treatment in USA, it is painful to see people take advantage of her situation to enrich themselves.
She cautioned fans and followers to be aware of such cons who have decided to capitalize on her condition.
Jahmbi's caution
“I have been tagged by many people and informed of some people using this picture of mine on Facebook to extort money from people. Firstly, we've reported it on Facebook and the posts haven't been pulled down. It's quite sad that as I share my painful, excruciating journey others see it as an opportunity to con others. My prayer is that they never end up in a situation like this. I shared this pic to show the world the extent of Endometriosis and it's adverse effects. Thoracic Endometriosis affects the lungs, chest, diaphragm and ribs. This is what I've been suffering from. I thank God for @centerforendocare for helping me get back on my feet,” reads part of Jahmbi Koikai’s post.
The Former “Trend” Panelist added that currently she is undergoing therapies treatment.
“I am currently undergoing therapies and treatment. I hope that my journey will help women to seek help and not be ashamed of a biological function that we have long been shamed for. Period pain is not normal and women's pain is valid. Menstruation should be normal and painless but it's not so for close to 200 million women. This is my story about this silent killer disease, Thoracic Endometriosis” added JahmbYy
Battling endometriosis
Jahmby has been battling endometriosis for years now. Just the other day, musicians King Kaka and Nonini made a surprise visit to the former Trend host and panelist who is undergoing endometriosis treatment in the United States.
