MC Fullstop further explained that the lungs cannot regenerate, unlike other organs such as the liver.

This meant that his condition was irreversible and that he would have to retire from the entertainment industry.

"Lungs unlike the liver cannot regenerate, the lungs do not have the same capability and I will have to adjust to the situation, and I see myself hanging boots. I want to thank those that have supported me in these difficult times God bless you," he went on.

Samuel Muraya, a former DJ attached to NTV led Kenyans in sharing messages of support to MC Fullstop.

"You are a legend and one of the baddest in 254 and for sure brother God heals. Keep praying and trusting him in this whole process," DJ Mo wrote.
