Nairobi Woman Representative Rachael Shebesh

In an earlier post, we reported that Nairobi County Women's Rep, Hon, Rachel Shebesh was hospitalized. As a result of the hospitalization, Shebesh had been unable to attend court proceedings in her case against Governor Evans Kidero. The vocal and outspoken Nairobi politician is hospitalized in a Nairobi hospital and we can now reveal what she is ailing from.

Late last year, Shebesh was involved in a number of spats with his Nairobi County political counterparts namely Senator Mike Sonko and Governor Evans Kidero. These fiascos seem to have taken toll on Shebesh who is said to be suffering from depression. In the past, Hon. Shebesh has come out and spoken about having bipolar disoder. Bipolar disorder — sometimes called manic-depressive disorder — is associated with mood swings that range from the lows of depression to the highs of mania. And her recent political upheavals seem to have swung Hon. Shebesh in the direction of lows of depression.

We sincerely wish her a speedy recovery.
