Henry Desagu, a Kenyan comedian, is battling depression and alcoholism, leading to a career decline.
Desagu has been admitted to Mathari Mental Hospital; his condition has affected his comedy output.
Fundraiser led by MP Elijah Njoroge Kururia aims to raise Sh1 million for Desagu's medical care.
Public figures and well-wishers have donated towards the cause, with Sh840,000 raised so far.
More support is encouraged to help Desagu with medication, rehabilitation, and other needs.
