He claims he can no longer work due to his condition and has been forced to solely rely on his stepmother.
“After I was released on a cash bail by a Bungoma court, which was also paid by for by a Good Samaritan, I found my house locked. Together with my kids, we moved in with my stepmother, whose house is just a few metres from mine. I cannot work and I am stressed,” said Wanjala.
Before this accident, I used to work at a mjengo and my son who is in Form One in a local secondary school, risks being sent home because of fee balance.
My house has been locked and I cannot afford to buy the painkillers,” he told The Nairobian.
Wanjala claims his wife died a few years ago, leaving him to take care of their children.
He revealed that on the day he hanged on the helicopter, he was a bit tipsy and cannot remember what exactly happened.
“On that day, I took lunch at my stepmother’s house and proceeded to a drinking den where I took some busaa with my friends, before proceeding to Posta grounds.
“As the helicopter carrying the body landed, we milled around it. As they were preparing to remove the body, I sat on the helicopter, but I can’t remember what happened after that. I found myself in the air,” narrates Wanjala.
His stepmother, Mama Everlyne Namusia, says she has been living with Wanjala since he was 12 after his mother died.
Wanjala is now appealing to well-wishers to help him raise money for rent and medical care.
