THE SERIOUS DISEASE PAUL MUITE IS SUFFERING FROM

Senior Counsel Paul Muite has denied social media reports that he is suffering from cancer.

The reports emerged early Friday after an internet user posted the lawyer’s photo of him looking frail on Twitter.

Muite dismissed the claims.

“Reports on social media that I am sick with cancer are NOT TRUE. Given my age, I have had to shed off weight on purpose to keep sugar levels where they should be otherwise I have never felt better; enjoyed 1 & 1/2 hrs jogging in Ngong forest this morning,” Muite said in a tweet.

Rumours about Muite’s ill health generated a buzz on the socials with a section of Kenyans condemning those spreading the false information.

Among them is fellow senior counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi.

I had lunch with Hon Paul Muite SC yesterday, had known him for 30 years and meet him regularly on a weekly basis and was dismayed and utterly disappointed with the malicious rumours on his health. Paul is in very good health.

Other Kenyans on Twitter also condemned those spreading the false information.

Why would you share Paul Muite’s pic knowing he’s been unwell and kept his matter private? … Man social media is something else.
