The government will foot doctor’s visit expenses for the treatment of comic, Mr Amri Athuman – famously known as Mzee Majuto – in India.
Recently, April 28, 2018, the Information, Culture, Arts and Sports, Dr Harrison Mwakyembe, went to Mzee Majuto who is conceded at the Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) in Dar es Salaam where he reported that the administration has chosen to assume the liability of the comic’s doctor’s visit expenses.
Mzee Majuto was admitted at Tumaini Hospital on April 23, following deterioration of his health.
In July last year, he underwent a hernia surgery in Tanga.
At Tumaini Hospital, he had to be referred to the MNH.
“We have started by shifting him to the MNH from Tumaini Hospital as we prepare to issue him a referral for treatment in India,” he said.
He said all the medical bills to be lodged by the MNH and India will be covered by the government.
In another development, companies that had worked with the veteran actor have started to respond to the government plea to contribute towards Mzee Majuto’s treatment.
