Jamaican Dancehall artiste Bounty Killer, has extended a helping hand to the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) and Victoria Jubilee Hospitals in downtown Kingston by donating more than 60 beds to the institutions.

The deejay, whose real name is Rodney Price, said he was decided to help after seeing several reports about the state of the island’s health sector.

He revealed that he received assistance from a friend in the international health sector in securing the beds at an affordable price.

He told reporters that he was able to get them into the country hassle-free via a waiver from the finance ministry.

This comes on the heels of the J$100 million raised by the Shaggy 'Make a Difference Foundation' for the Bustamante Hospital for Children.
