Former athlete Betty Murugi transferred to KNH for treatment

Former athlete Betty Murugi was transferred to Kenyatta National Hospital on Tuesday morning, where she is expected to undergo specialized treatment. Murugi, who has been battling a debilitating illness, suffered a tendon injury that cut short her running career, leaving her facing years of struggle. The former athlete is expected to undergo surgery later this week after Energy Principal Secretary Alex Wachira stepped in to support her treatment. Murugi’s plight was highlighted on Citizen TV, prompting well-wishers to come to her aid just two days later. The former athlete has expressed gratitude to Citizen TV for highlighting her situation and helping mobilize support for her treatment.
