Thursday, December 26, 2024 - A young Kenyan man of Somali origin is seeking help after he was rendered homeless in the United States of America, where he is living from hand to mouth and sleeping in the streets.
He relocated to America in search of greener pastures but ended up homeless after being abandoned by the people who had initially hosted him.
He was forced to live in the streets because
he didn’t want to live in a shelter home.
He paints and displays his artwork to passersby along a busy road, hoping to get customers.
The distressed man claims that he lives in
fear of being attacked by racists, even as he camps in the streets for lack of
shelter.
He is also disabled, making his life in
America a living hell.
According to Bishop Pinney
Muthee, Secretary in charge of the Homeless Reform Project, an organization
that helps homeless people in Massachusetts, there are various factors that
could make someone end up in the American streets.
Bishop Muthee said that
domestic violence, alcoholism and drug addiction are the major reasons as to
why some Kenyans are homeless in America.
According to Muthee,
failing to fit into the American system of life is the reason why many
immigrants finally find themselves in the streets, due to their inability to
pay the bills.
"It is very easy to
become homeless in America, even to us who are nursing these people. If you
fail to pay bills you are immediately kicked out of your house," he said.
