In 2016, John Njenga, a former truck driver was diagnosed with a spinal disc and nerve line problem which affected his movement.
“The doctors told me that I have to seek medical treatment in India where I was supposed to have an operation to correct the spinal problem. The treatment would cost me Sh1.6 million, which I could not afford. I was so stressed and the problem rendered me jobless and without a medical cover I was at the mercy of God, “recalls Njenga.
