Njambi Koikai has not had the best of years. Her career has taken off with her promotion to host of the Trend but her health has been a problem. The TV host has been hospitalized for a condition known as endometriosis, a condition that causes her lungs to collapse every month. Njoki has been detailing her fight with the strange disease on social media and even revealed to the public that she underwent emergency corrective surgery after her lung collapsed back in August 2017.

The host has seen an outpouring of compassion by fans who continue to support her since she hospitalized.  But as with all good things in life, there will always be those who bring shit as a gift. In this case, there is a man who gave Njambi some terrible advice. The man, Njambi says albeit without revealing his identity, allegedly instructed her to visit a witchdoctor since whatever she is suffering from cannot be categorized as a disease but the work of a witch.

Njambi revealed all this in an emotional Instagram post, where she narrates what happened. She said:

“Today as I perfectly choose to have a good day, it’s made better by ignorance. This man sent me a message saying that I’m living through a generational curse left by my grandma and he has contacts for a medicine man that will sort it out, Secondly, this endofight is millions of women fighting.Don’t dare pull my late grandma and my family into something you’re not aware of. These women have seen me fight. I don’t think it’s right for anyone to spew their ignorance and involve my family. Drag me all you want but not my mothers and sisters. These women are my rock. These women know we are winning this war and so are the millions of women battling Endometriosis. To all my endowarriors, awareness is important. We come from cultures that silence our pain and experiences as women. People need to be educated and informed about this.” 

Some people truly are crazy! What type of advice is this to a woman who is a champion for many women out there with her courage and grit? Nkt!
