By , August 28, 2026

Former prison warden Jackson Kuria Kihara, popularly known as Cop Shakur, has asked his fans to mark his birthday by supporting media personality Natalie Githinji, who is continuing to receive treatment for endometriosis.

In a post shared on his Instagram page on Thursday, August 27, 2026, Cop Shakur said many people had asked how they could celebrate his special day. Instead of receiving gifts, he asked his followers to direct their support towards Githinji’s treatment and help her continue with her medical journey.

The content creator said he had chosen to use his birthday to draw attention to Githinji’s ongoing battle with the condition, expressing confidence that she would overcome it. “Natalie is still battling endometriosis, and she is going to win this fight,” he wrote.

He went on to explain why he would prefer contributions towards Githinji’s treatment to personal birthday gifts. “So, if you were wondering what you could give me for my birthday, your contribution towards Natalie’s journey would mean more to me than any gift,” he added.

Cop Shakur also encouraged his followers to stand with Githinji as she continues seeking treatment. “Let’s stand with Natalie. Let’s help her win,” he said.

Natalie’s endometriosis journey

Githinji has for years used her public platform to speak about her experience with endometriosis and the challenges that come with the condition.

Through social media posts and interviews, she has also helped keep conversations around endometriosis in the public space.
