The Garissa school boy
                                                       Sahal Siyat Salah was a normal high school student until        
                                                        one day he was attacked by armed young men.
Sahal was a hardworking young orphan who also fended for his younger siblings after the death of their older brother.

The youngster would tend after the livestock when he was off from school.

One day while on his way to take the livestock to a watering point, Sahal was attacked by a group of young men armed with knives who later left him for dead.

The Samaritan, was forced to hire a vehicle which transported Sahal to Alliance Medical in Eastleigh, Nairobi.

Sahal underwent surgery but his condition is yet to improve.

The family of the young boy is now calling for help as he has missed school due to the extent of the injuries with the hospital bill also skyrocketing.

Currently the medical bill stands at KSh 450,000 (N1,381,500) with the family asking Kenyans to help clear it and give Sahal another chance to realise his dreams.
