Natalie Githinji has opened up about a terrifying moment after surgery left her unable to feel both legs and struggling to lift her right hand.

The media personality revealed that she spent about three days in the ICU after undergoing surgery to treat endometriosis and ovarian cysts.

Speaking about her recovery on Monday, August 31, 2026, Githinji recalled waking up frightened when she realised she had lost sensation in both legs.

Her right hand also kept dropping whenever she tried to lift it.

“Nikaamka sasa… wacha sasa niinue mkono ya right inaanguka peke yake… sifeel miguu zote mbili…” she recalled.

The situation left her fearing that something had gone seriously wrong during the operation.

Githinji said she even started wondering whether doctors had discovered more severe endometriosis in another part of her body.

But a nurse eventually reassured her that the numbness was temporary and was caused by medication administered during the surgery.

That brought some relief.

The recovery, however, was far from easy.

Githinji said her body became heavily swollen, with the left side of her womb particularly swollen. She also had a catheter fitted and described the experience as physically painful and emotionally draining.

She spent approximately three days in ICU as she recovered and was monitored by doctors.

Despite the frightening experience, Githinji said the ordeal strengthened her faith.

Looking at the situation through the story of King Hezekiah in the Bible, she said she found herself asking God for another chance at life.

Foi Wambui has been ordered to remain in a copyright battle over Mutoriah’s hit song “Beta” after a court rejected her attempt to have the case against her thrown out.

The actress and content creator is facing a lawsuit filed by musician Mutoriah over the alleged unauthorised use of his song in an Oppo smartphone advertisement.

The dispute centres on a skit Wambui featured in while promoting Oppo’s Reno 12 5G. Mutoriah claims his music was used without his permission or a synchronization licence.

A synchronization licence is required when copyrighted music is paired with visual content, particularly in commercial advertising.

Mutoriah says he discovered the advert circulating on social media on August 31, 2024.

He later issued a legal notice demanding an apology and other remedies over the alleged copyright infringement.
