"Today I had the privilege of visiting Musician Miracle Baby and his wife at their home to deliver Ksh 300,000 that was entrusted to me by His Excellency William Ruto for their daily expenses. Thank you KRG the Don, Director Chipukeezy,Weezdom, Gabu as well as Karungu Muraya for making time to accompany me," Jaguar wrote.

"Also special thanks to the CEO of Kenyatta Hospital for providing the Ambulance and medical personnel required to transport Miracle Baby to the hospital for further private treatment as Directed by H.E President William Ruto," he added.

The former Sailors Gang member had been in the hospital for two months and was released after intervention by comedian Eric Omondi.

This was after well-wishers raised Ksh1 million to help in the course. Eric Omondi was compelled to intervene as the bill reached Ksh1.4 million.

According to his partner Carol Katrue, Miracle Baby has been grappling with intestinal obstruction since 2018, a condition that was initially treated, and the appendix removed.

During the initial treatment, Katrue added that the doctors informed them of growth on the intestines that needed removal, which later turned out to be inaccurate.

The condition worsened in 2024 forcing various top individuals to intervene. However, with Ruto's intervention, the family is optimistic that Miracle Baby will get back to his feet.
