Former Citizen TV journalist Kimani Mbugua is appealing for help after he was discharged from hospital last week.

In a four-minute video doing rounds on social media, Kimani says that he is currently homeless after his host grew tired and asked him to seek an alternative.

Kimani was in 2020 diagnosed with bipolar disorder and since then, he rues that his life fell apart.

“…I have lost so many things, I have lost so many friends, people got tired of me. I am at a position where most people are not willing to help because they say they are tired,” he says.

Although Kimani says that his mind has come back to normal, he fears that his current predicaments might cause him to relapse and start doing drugs.

“I am homeless, I have my bag and I’m out where I was living they told me they couldn’t host me anymore and told me to look for an alternative,” a melancholic Kimani pleads.

A business plan

Since his discharge, Kimani has since come up with a business plan, appealing to an investor to invest in his quest to get a creative agency up and running.

“I have a business plan and my first proposal for a client. The company structures and everything are set up…I just need a business partner who’s serious and is going to bring in money and just have my ideas take off.”

Kimani Mbugua Plagued with debts

He says that he has debts amounting to KSh1.7 million since he has been out of job for two years now.

“I could suffer in silence and be depressed and go back to drugs. I don’t want to go back there. For two months I’ve been drug-free. I don’t have even a phone. If you are willing to help me my email is; [email protected].

“I am KSh1.7 million in debt because somebody very close to me sold my car and I haven’t hold a job for the last two years.”
