Planned Fundraiser Canceled: Nyongesa had been organizing a community fundraiser for November 15, 2024, to cover the KSh 150,000 needed for his operation, but a former classmate stepped in to pay the entire amount, canceling the need for the event. Generous Contribution: John Wasilwa, a high school classmate, surprised Nyongesa by covering the full surgery cost on October 31, 2024, allowing him to focus on recovery. Surgery Scheduled: Nyongesa’s surgery, an open reduction and internal fixation of the fractured tibia, is set for next week at a hospital in Nakuru.
