This is so sad!! 💔
In July 2023 while in Grade 4, Benaiah Mwendwa reported to school like he always did. As he was going through his day, it is alleged that he was slapped more than seven times consecutively by a teacher at Nyali School for playing in class. This allegedly led to internal bleeding in the middle ear, and since then, Benaiah’s life has never been the same.
Benaiah has been battling a severe illness involving multiple inner ear and nerve complications, resulting in constant pain, facial paralysis, loss of balance, and complete hearing loss in both ears. As you can see, a child who was born healthy is currently experiencing stroke-like symptoms.
He has been treated by a multidisciplinary team of doctors, including ENT specialists and surgeons, neurosurgeons, neurologists, physicians, pediatricians, physiotherapists, and rheumatologists from various hospitals, including The Nairobi Hospital, Aga Khan, Gertrude’s, Pandya Hospital, Jocham Hospital, Nairobi West, Nyali Children’s Hospital, as well as multiple consultants in their private clinics, but his condition remains unresolved.
This has affected his education, social life, and hobbies, and he is also dealing with psychological trauma. He is currently undergoing therapy and the family is hoping for the best. The family has since moved to court to seek justice, but as we all know, the justice process can be slow.
The longer they wait, the more his condition worsens. The family is humbly seeking financial support to enable him to receive specialized treatment in India and, hopefully, restore his health, at an estimated cost of KSh 1.5 million. The anticipated travel date is 5th August 2026.
Your contribution will bring hope to Benaiah and his family. Kindly channel your support through:

Ndindi Nyoro is one of the most hypocritical figures in Kenyan politics!! The only reason this statement exists is because Kenyans saw right past the BS.
What we are witnessing here is HYPOCRISY and STUPIDITY of the highest order. You cannot spend years cultivating the image of an alternative voice, positioning yourself as the intellectual conscience of government, then disappear when the moment of accountability arrives.
And then return with a carefully crafted statement about humility, patriotism and service.
We are being asked to believe that there was something more important than one of the most consequential votes affecting the lives of millions of Kenyans. There wasn’t.
Nothing was more important than that vote.
Absolutely nothing. Kwenda uko🚶🏿♀️WANTAM!!
