A gofundme page has been set up to raise $50,000 to pay for the medical expenses of Cepeke, a multi-talented musician who was hospitalised in early January. He has been diagnosed with Guillian-Barre Syndrome, a rare autoimmune disorder, which sometimes affects patients who have contracted the Zika virus.
His daughter Viona Alexander-Smith, said on Facebook Wednesday that they were thankful to “each and everyone for their continuous prayers, words of encouragement and for simply being there. The prayers are working; he is improving and will continue to improve until he returns to his normal state.”
