Comedian Paul Ogutu, alias Wakimani, has taken a significant step towards addressing his mental health by checking into a therapy center.

As reported earlier, Wakimani had been struggling with depression after being served court documents demanding KSh 21 million in compensation by the wife of the late comedian Ayeiya.

Wakimani's decision to seek help comes after he opened up about his struggles with depression, revealing that he had tried to work things out with Ayeiya's family but to no avail.

Comedienne Zeddy, who first broke the news of Wakimani's admission, shared a video of him leaving for the therapy center, accompanied by a heartfelt caption expressing gratitude to everyone who has supported him.

Wakimani's girlfriend of five years had left him after he sank into depression, leaving him alone to deal with his mental health issues.
