Trump on Balogun:
Balogun is our best player. He got a red card. I didn't know what that meant, but then I heard that it means you cannot play in the next game.
That's very unfair. How do you penalize him for a game that hasn't been played yet?
I asked for a review by FIFA.
❗️A scene has unfolded at Kenyatta Hospital last night, a young boy called Driffel alias Driffo from Katwekera, Sarang'ombe Ward ward passed on at the hospital unexpectedly 😳. He had been rushed there by his friends after being attacked earlier in the night, Despite having SHA, Kenyatta National Hospital declined to attend to him, demanding for upfront payment before being admitted to ICU, having failed to raise the money, his poor parents started calling friends and relatives to chip in and help as the poor boy remained on the Accident and Emergency bed writhing in pain. By the time his friends and relatives arrived, he had passed on since no care was offered. His friends started agitating and demanding for answers, Kenyatta National Hospital security responded by detaining them, but as the crowd increased, they were released and decided to take the body with them. Kenyatta National Hospital management must tell Kenyans if it is a money making facility or an Hospital 🤔🤔. His friends arrived late to save him😭😭😭. Why decline SHA if it is working? This is totally unacceptable @KNH_hospital
Last night, I received a distress call from concerned residents in the Mowlem area of Embakasi West. They reported that two young children had been sleeping in a makeshift shelter (kibanda) late into the night while their mother spent her time in local pubs consuming alcohol and allegedly abusing other substances, leaving the children neglected.
I immediately visited the area and found one of the children fast asleep in the makeshift shelter without even a sweater. Thankfully, a Good Samaritan had stepped in and covered the child with a sweater to protect them from the cold. What was even more heartbreaking was learning that whenever neighbours attempted to help the children, the mother would become hostile towards them.
After speaking with a security guard, we were informed that the mother was inside her house. We proceeded there and found her consuming alcohol and chewing miraa. Shockingly, she did not even know where one of her children was at that moment.
The neighbours informed us that the mother, who is also a landlady, might be struggling with depression. Although that has not been medically confirmed, she appeared to be in need of professional help and support.
I rescued the two children and assured their mother that I would support efforts to help her access rehabilitation services so that she can receive the guidance and treatment she needs.
We reported the matter to Mowlem Police Station, where it was referred to the Children's Officer. The children will be placed in a safe environment while the relevant authorities conduct further investigations and take the necessary steps to safeguard their welfare.
No child deserves to be neglected or left exposed to danger. I commend the concerned residents who chose to act and report the situation. Together, we can protect vulnerable children while also ensuring that those struggling with addiction or mental health challenges receive the help they need.
