Lillian Muli is one sad celebrity.Conjestina has been trending after a video of her not looking her best went viral and Kenyans were concerned.

Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko on Friday to Nairobi for treatment.

The governor promised the boxer employment after her rehabilitation.

Conjestina was diagnosed with a psychiatric condition which has seen her on and off hospital for a while.

Lillian Muli read the news on screen and just after she went to social media to air her grievances on the issue saying she is saddened by what she saw on the video.

She wrote:

I’m reading about Congestina and it saddens me especially because I heard her family say people laugh at her and them…I’m glad she’s getting the necessary medical attention I think that’s long overdue; but then again I ask myself what next after treatment? Will that take away that gnawing feeling that she was once a household name and now feels perhaps invisible? What as a government and society are we doing to honor those who make Kenya proud in whatever field? I remember Maurice Odumbe saying he remembers the good old days and it saddens him to see how life can change. While the help is appreciated I see a lot of self seeking people giving themselves credit for getting Congestina help (when you give to the needy do not announce it with trumpets) I think the noise should be more about finding a way to keep people like her relevant in their respective fields so that they can help mentor other upcoming talents while earning a living.

Many other celebrities have also reached out to try help her and at least one Sonko has decided to step up.
