Former nominated Member of Nyeri County Assembly, Wangui Njee, has called on medical experts to disclose full information to Vitiligo patients when they seek medical attention.

Wangui has been a vitiligo ambassador for almost a decade, supporting people living with vitiligo by donating sunscreens and lip balms, which protects their skin from the sun rays.

She was diagnosed with vitiligo as a teenager back when she was at Pangani Girls’ High School in 2005.
