Nairobi County Chief Officer for Environment Geoffrey Mosiria has once again rescued a street boy who had escaped from a charitable rehabilitation centre in Kangemi, Nairobi, where he was receiving family care after schools closed for the April holiday.

Mosiria revealed that the distressed street boy, whom he had saved from the streets of Nairobi's central business district (CBD) along Kirinyaga Road, escaped from the children's home following an impromptu visit by government officials at the institution.

According to Mosiria, the boy identified as Mike is believed to have engaged in a disparaging conversation with the government official, which reportedly prompted him to seek 'freedom and independence' by fleeing to the streets of Thika town.

Mike was, however, rescued after the Nairobi County environmentalist located him on the streets of Thika town.  Chief Officer for Environment in Nairobi County, Geoffrey Mosiria at Kenyans.co.ke studios, January 28, 2025.
