Former Kenyan boxing star Conjestina Achieng was today rescued by former Nairobi governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko after she developed mental challenges.
Sonko rescued the boxer and took her to the Mombasa Women Empowerment Network Hospital in Miritini for treatment.
“I was approached by Conjestina’s son, Charlton Otieno, who reached out to me requesting for his help as he decried financial constraints in the family. We do not want this to continue in the future and that is why we have agreed with the family we shall offer her employment after discharged,” said Sonko.
The 44-year-old former IBF middleweight champion’s health has deteriorated since 2011 when she was diagnosed with Schizoaffective disorder.
