In the recent past, former Nairobi Governor, Mike Mbuvi Sonko took to various rehabilitation facilities, including those in Nairobi County, Parklands, and Diani Beach.
In 2023, she received admission to the Mombasa Women Rehabilitation Centre, garnering positive reactions from Kenyans. However, Carol Radul says Conjestina is back to her old life.
Carol Radul has posted pictures from her recent visit to Conjestina Achieng's house on social media.
Radul has been following the former boxing queen for a long time as she struggles with mental health issues following a break from her career.
The visit came early this year. Through her socials, she shared
"On 2nd Jan I visited my friend Congestina Achieng in her shags in Yala. She's been there about 2 months and is back to her same lifestyle. 😔 She has good days and bad days.When I arrived she was having a bad day but her face lit up when she saw me and we chatted for a long time as best we could. I tried with my layman ability to gently encourage her to "clean up her act".
Radul reasoned that Conjestina's mother, who resides with her in the hamlet, is still a potential source of assistance for her.
"Many have tried to help her but none of us have succeeded in a long term solution to her predicament. I concede it's out of my capability 😔What I can do though is be her friend.
Visit her when I can. Call her Mum from time to time to check in on them.If you are ever in the Yala area; drop in and say hey.
She'll love it. Do a bit of shopping for her Mum who looks after her. Mama is always so appreciative. And pray for the family."
