I am looking for Andrea Tendenei, 62, from Kaptumo village, Kipsomba ward, Soy constituency,” Sudi posted on his verified Facebook page.

For 25 years he has been bedridden, unable to leave his house. He lives with his wife and seven children, and the family has no source of income. I am willing to help him in whatever small way I can,” he added.

The chair alongside other food and non-food items has already been delivered to him.

After my announcement, kind members of the public helped me find Andrea, and I finally spoke to him. He shared his most urgent needs, and I’m happy I could help in my own small way,” the legislator said.

I’ve bought him an electric wheelchair after 25 years confined to bed, and enrolled him in SHA for treatment and therapy. I’m also covering his children’s school fees and working to get his eldest son a job so he can support the family,” he added.
