A LOST BOY IN ELDORET

One day a boy who was 5 years old was reported missing. The boy Derrick Mulongo had gone to Eldoret together with his elder brother 12 years old. While they were in Eldoret at their uncle's placethe younger brother, Derick jokingly informed his brither that he was going back home in Kakamega and disappeared innoticed.
The seeming joke turned real when he never came back including few days that followed. The elder sister in Kakamega reported the case to me as a volunteer children's officer to help trace him. The case was also reported on radio and for some days announcements were made. I involved the children Department which did all they could and never get tired. Although it took long later the boy was found.
