Sad moment man, 26, hit the street with a placard to sell his kidney in order to send his younger brother to school

A Kenyan man has sparked waves of emotions on the internet after he revealed the extent he’s willing to go in order to sponsor his younger brother to further his education at the University.

The man Felix Joel, 26 stormed the street with a placard willing to sell his kidney in order to make his brother’s dream of being a scholar and working with his degree become a reality.

When his gesture attracted much attention online, Tuko.co.ke interviewed him and that was when he spoke about how he became a father figure at a very young age. Joel said he has three younger brothers who were left in his care after his father’s demise in 2007.

”I was in Class 7 when I started taking care of them through the business of mali mali because my mom is jobless,” he said.

He explained that he had to stop schooling in 2017 while he was still in his first year at Masinde Muliro University where he was studying Animal Science.

“I also had a contract to supply beans to one of the schools but it ended when students were sent home last year due to COVID-19. I haven’t been able to get it again,” he explained.

Joel’s younger 17-year-old young brother, Morgan is expected to join Kenyatta University on October 4 for a course in Agricultural Education and Extension.

But being that he does not have the funds for fees and other needs, Joel with no hope in sight, made the difficult decision to walk around with a banner announcing his intention to sell his kidney for his sibling’s education.

“I have bigger problems that I can’t even start saying now. My dad was polygamous so as we speak we don’t even live at home, but that’s another story altogether,” he concluded.
