Kenyan comic Akuku Danger has bared his heart. He says he will not have kids in life. The move comes due to his sickle cell pain. He wants the chain to end with his line.
Akuku, born Mannerson Ochieng, spoke in a new talk. He can have kids but will not by choice. He wants no child born with sickle cell. He sees it as care for a child’s life.
Akuku Danger explains choice on kids
He gave clear words on the hard call. “I do not have kids,” he said in part. “It is not that I can’t,” he added. “I choose a life with care for such things.”
He then spoke on sickle cell in plain terms. “I will not raise a child with this blood.” “I want sickle cell to die with me.” Those words drew cheers and deep notes online. Health talk trends today with an Aproko Doctor warning. He tells adults to watch their words with kids.
He urges careful health tests before kids
Akuku said he and his partner took tests. They checked for sickle cell traits and gene risk. He says both parents must test before kids. That step helps avoid pain for a child.
He put it this way to make it clear. “If we must have kids, we will first test.” “We must know if a spouse is a carrier.” He kept the aim short, kind, and firm.
He calls the checks simple gene tests done at clinics. Such checks show if both lovers carry the same trait. The risk grows when both lovers share that same trait. Wise plans can help block pain for a child.
Fans hailed the call as brave and smart. Some shared their own sickle cell life roads. The chat moved fast across apps and sites. Others sent love and warm words to him. Elsewhere, star voices share raw notes on hard days. See Tiwa Savage’s plea from this week as well
