We can reveal that President Uhuru Kenyatta issued an order to Kiambu's Women Rep Gathoni Wamuchomba to take Githeriman, who is battling a toxic alcohol addiction, to a rehabilitation centre.
This was revealed by the Women Rep herself who heeded the president's order when she turned up at Githeriman's home in Kayole on Friday.
''When I was attending to my business, I got a call and ordered to make sure that Githeriman is taken to a rehabilitation centre. I am grateful to the president because he knows that I am involved in efforts to rehabilitate people battling alcoholism,'' she said.
The president is said to have been concerned about Githeriman's health when he visited Eastlands a few days ago.
Last year, Statehouse awarded Githeriman to the surprise of scores of Kenyans.
