Celebrated Citizen TV anchor and host of the popular 10 over 10 show, Willis Raburu, on Tuesday, October 1, made a passionate appeal to his fans to help him in his quest to lose weight.
In a video posted on his Facebook page, Raburu revealed that he has been struggling with weight loss for a long time and that he was dedicating these last following months to a 90-day challenge to considerably lose weight.
“I need you guys to help me. I've been called a big Willy, big fish...lets hit the gym and deal with the weight issue. We commit to staying clean. If you drink, try and stay sober for the next 90 days. If you smoke quit,” Raburu urged.
In the 90-day challenge, Raburu sought to have his fans take care of themselves by ensuring they stay healthy mentally, physically and spiritually. He asked his fans to commit for the entire period and also read at least one Bible verse a day.
Raburu promised to share out his contact details with fans interested in joining him in his weight loss journey so that they can be in constant communication.
“Every Wednesday and Friday we are going to check-in and find how many kgs I’ve lost,” he added.
To any of his fans who would correctly predict how many kilograms Raburu weighs, the journalist promised a reward of headphones and a Ksh1,000.
“Don’t procrastinate. Don’t postpone it. Start this journey today,” Raburu urged.
Raburu who sought the services of a personal fitness trainer promised to be posting videos every Monday on his YouTube channel to engage his fans on how to get committed to the 90-day challenge
More than a hundred of Raburu’s Facebook followers commented on the video with over two thousand views, guessing the anchor's weight.
Speaking to kenyans.co.ke Raburu confirmed that he is indeed looking for help and that his cholesterol levels were very high but that they are getting better.
This is not the first time Raburu had declared publicly that he wanted to lose weight. The journalist had initially successfully lost 12kg in a similar quest to cut down his weight.
