Andy Deh, the son of the late reggae MC John Maina—popularly known as Fullstop—has been admitted to hospital with serious pancreas and intestinal complications, according to Instagram photos shared online.
The video, posted on Instagram by the entertainment page NGC, shows Andy in a hospital bed wearing teal scrubs.
Andy Deh’s Health Update
In his post, Andy reflected on his situation and described what he had been through in candid detail.
“We are responsible for most of the things that happen to us in life. Hapa vile unaniona, not a single meal was had for 3 days. Wameingiza pipe hadi kwa tumbo tu retrieve some fluid in my intestines that was stopping food from digestion. Pancreas nayo ilikuwa imeanza kuoza. Hii room wamenifungia till further notice.”
Translated, Andy revealed that he had not eaten a single meal for three days, that a pipe had been inserted into his stomach to retrieve fluid in his intestines that was preventing food digestion, and that his pancreas had begun to rot. He added that he has been confined to a hospital room “till further notice.”
The post painted a picture of a serious medical emergency requiring urgent intervention, though Andy did not disclose the name of the hospital or a specific diagnosis.
Weeks After Endometriosis Remarks
Andy’s hospitalisation comes weeks after remarks that drew widespread criticism online.
On August 31, 2026, he linked the misuse of emergency contraceptive pills to endometriosis. He made the comments on the Chizi Podcast during a discussion of stage 4 endometriosis—the condition TV presenter Natalie Githinji has battled.
The comments were widely condemned online, with many accusing Andy of spreading misinformation about a serious medical condition affecting millions of women worldwide.
Comedian Eric Omondi publicly reacted to the remarks, asking Kenyans to help him find Andy. Andy responded by questioning what Omondi meant, escalating the public spat.
Divided Reactions Online
When news of his admission broke, reactions were divided.
Some users wished Andy a quick recovery, expressing concern for his health and wellbeing. Others linked the news to his earlier remarks about endometriosis, with some suggesting the hospitalisation was a case of “what goes around comes around”—a reference to his controversial comments.
The divided response reflects the lingering fallout from the endometriosis controversy, which remains a sore point for many who felt his remarks trivialised a condition that causes severe pain and significant disruption to the lives of those affected.
