Njambi Kokai to run for parliament

She spent two years in the United States undergoing treatment for endometriosis, and came back to Kenya in January 2021 and has been on a journey of self-reflection.

Njambi ran a successful online fundraising campaign that enabled her to meet the cost of treatment in the US and, even as she slowly integrates back to her routine, she remains grateful to the people who helped throughout her medical journey.

“I am so thankful to all the amazing people who supported me through my fundraiser, as without their support, I would not have been able to receive the life-changing surgery,” Njambi told a local daily.

Endometriosis is a condition in which the layer of tissue that normally covers the inside of the uterus, grows outside it, most often on the ovaries, fallopian tubes and tissue around the uterus and ovaries causing pelvic pain.
