Sahal was a hardworking young orphan who also fended for his younger siblings after the death of their older brother.

The injured school boy was later taken to Madogashe Referral Hospital by a good Samaritan but the doctors were on strike, the Samaritan later rushed him to the biggest county hospital, Garissa Referral and still no doctors to treat him.
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 youngster would tend after the livestock when he was off from school.
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.
