Tinu Collins, a
British woman
allegedly pushed
from the fifth floor of an apartment block in Lavington by her then-boyfriend
artiste Trap King Chrome (real name
Bradley Obomi),
is crying out for help. The 25-year-old
woman
was admitted to Nairobi Women’s Hospital after the accident for some time and later discharged, but she cannot leave the hospital because she is unable to settle the Sh3 million bill.
Tinu
was left with a fractured ankle (right), a broken leg and
fracture of the pelvis
and since then, things haven’t been easy for her. Tinu took to social media to call upon well-wishers to help her pay her hospital bill and go back to her country because she has had enough.
"I am writing this from my hospital bed on a ward in Nairobi Women’s Hospital in Kenya. I have received necessary and basic treatment due to the funds not being present and am making slow but steady progress. I am here alone, by myself with no family or friends now other than those I have made within the hospital.
"I have been officially discharged from the actual hospital 6 weeks ago but am unable to leave and return back to England until my bill is paid in full. I need everybody’s help I know to achieve this, as the bill is increasing each day and will eventually hit a sum that is completely unobtainable and I am really scared as to where that will leave me."
The young woman said she met
Trap King Chrome while she was 13 years old, and after a year of dating, they called it quits, only to
reconnect last year on Facebook.
"Bradley had moved back to his home country of Kenya and after a couple of months of communicating, talking and catching up, Bradley asked me if I would get back into a relationship with him and to come visit him and see his country, I told him that I would definitely come visit him and whilst here, decided to give the relationship another go."
But after coming to Kenyan
in April this year, all has not been well. She has been in an abusive
relationship.
"On a few other occasions, given it was only when Bradley had been intoxicated with alcohol he became very controlling and aggressive towards me. Bradley has beaten me several times whilst I have been here residing in his apartment with him and has even bitten me in front of his family and friends which made me feel scared and I began to feel a little nervous of him."
Adding:
"On June 12th 2017, the night of the accident, I and Bradley had been drinking at a neighbour’s house. After drinking most of the day, we went back to his apartment. We got into an argument because I had found texts on his phone to other girls. Whilst arguing he pushed me and I fell to the ground and smashed my head off the floor. When I got up off the floor I was upset, distressed, frustrated and angry. I stormed to the balcony to get fresh air to calm down. I sat on the bar of the balcony and my foot slipped, I grabbed onto the railings and tried to pull myself up but I couldn’t and I fell 5 floors down to the ground floor. It happened so fast. When I landed on the ground I landed on my feet then fell on my side. I started screaming and Bradley and the neighbours rushed to my side. I was conscious but in a lot of pain. An ambulance was called and when arrived I was taken to Nairobi Women’s Hospital. Bradley's mother Margaret Donovan came with me to the hospital. Bradley was arrested and went to the local station.
"I was taken straight to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)."
Tinu is convinced that good samaritans will come to her rescue
"The hospital bill is currently nearing Sh3 million, 21k, and it's increasing every day. I am fully stranded and it’s becoming extremely depressing."
