Kiwete Ametembea: Nairobians Force A Young Boy Faking To Be Crippled, To Stand Up And Walk.
Netizens in Nairobi managed to successfully confront a young boy from Tanzania who had been pretending to be crippled. The boy was forced to stand up and walk, and netizens confirmed that he was not disabled. He is allegedly part of a crew of fake, hired beggars from Tanzania, who are placed on various streets of Nairobi to solicit money from the public.
The young boy pleaded with the crowd not to beat him, explaining that he was new to the job. He admitted that they have a leader who assigns them to different parts of Nairobi. However, he claimed he did not know the leader’s phone number.
The crowd, which had been listening attentively, insisted that he stand on his feet and walk. He did so with ease, confirming suspicions that there are many individuals in Nairobi’s CBD who fake disabilities in order to obtain money from unsuspecting people.
