Kanda King had on January 7, posted a medical appeal citing injuries to his hip because of his stunts as an acrobatic dancer.

“During my tenure as a dancer, I used my talent including flexible and acrobatic stunts to entertain people, which unfortunately it came to my realization years after that I injured my hip,” said King.

The dancer further said that before deciding on hip replacement, he tried other options such as physiotherapy which failed.

“Flash back 5 years my hip rapidly escalated into extreme pain prompting me to experiment numerous options from physiotherapy, orthopedic examinations and medical treatments which were all in vain…,” Write King.

The dancer while seeking for financial assistance from friends and family, said the total cost of both hip replacements would amount to Ksh 990,000 which excludes bed and medicine charges.

“Each hip replacement shall cost 495,000, totaling the amount to 990,000 excluding bed and medicine,"

“I am hereby seeking for donations/contributions of any kind from well-wishers, friends, relatives to support me to meet the target,” Wrote Kanda King.
