A young Boy's Problems

Two years ago, I witnessed a boy who was my classmate. The boy had some problems which even affected his education. He neither had his father nor mother. One of his uncles took him after his parents burial. He pretended that he would take care of him. A month later, the uncle had no money to pay for his school fees. He told the boy that it was a must for him to work so as to earn a living for him and his siblings. He could not argue. His late father had a coffee plantation where he went and sold it. He paid and went back to his homeland. One day, as he was working in the plantation, a person came and tried to talk him. He told him that he had not done his KCPE because of school fees. The man told him that he would educate him and his siblings too. From that day the boy was rescued.
