“Akuku Danger was discharged yesterday but the hospital has refused to accept any collateral as he organizes to clear the bill,” Sandra wrote.
The comedian has been battling Sickle Cell Anemia and has been admitted twice this year with the latest admission being two weeks ago.
Sickle Cell Anemia is an inherited disease which affects the shape of the red blood cells blocking the blood flow.
Sandra is now calling on well-wishers to contribute and support the comedian to get discharged from the hospital.
In March celebrities organized a fundraiser for Akuku to help him clear his hospital bill and managed to raise Sh3.5 million out of the required Sh4.5 million.
