Man in Tears as Wife of 4 Kids Leaves Him for Neighbor

Kenya, EA | THE BLACK EXAMINER | In Chivovoli Village, Vihiga County, Kenya, a man is grappling with shock and despair as his family disintegrates due to extreme poverty. David Sorema, a casual laborer in the tea fields, once had a happy family with a wife and three kids. However, everything collapsed when his wife left him for their neighbor.

Sorema, overwhelmed by depression from witnessing his wife with the neighbor, turned to addiction. His two sons left, and his daughter moved in with her mother in the neighboring property. He now lives with his youngest child, Nickson, who has resorted to peddling scrap metal in the shopping area and has stopped attending school.

During an interview, Nickson’s earnings were only KSh 40. Sorema, described as incredibly careless by his aunt, dismisses discussions about his situation, simply stating that life is too difficult. The young man is in urgent need of assistance, as there is concern that he may become homeless if support is not provided.
