Speaking in an interview, digital strategist Dennis Itumbi said that organizers of the show cancelled it after discussions with the doctors.
“As you are aware we were to have the Chipukeezy show on August 5. However, following our briefing with the doctors and surgeons, we have decided to postpone that show. We have asked him to agree to postpone,” Itumbi explained.
Furthermore, regarding the health status of Chipukeezy, Itumbi said the comedian has stomach complications and that he was responding well to medication.
“We are at Nairobi West Hospital, Chipukeezy or Vincent Mwasia, was admitted here last night. We are happy about the progress so far of his medication. He has been out the machines. He is now in general ward,” Itumbi revealed.
Chipukeezy had announced the event dubbed “Ten Toes Dow” in July which was to take place at Mt. Kenya University, Mwai Kibaki Convention Hall.
