A 75-year-old man has received 100 strokes of canes from locals for reportedly raping and defiling his own daughter. Khalidi Tawoda is alleged to have committed the offense when other family members we're not home and silenced her by granting some money. Mr. Sam Mboizi, the clan head told local media that Tawoda confessed to having committed incest and that as the clan they decided to perform cultural rituals to cleanse them. As part of the rituals, Tawoda was directed to buy a he-goat, chicken, millet flour, and matooke. “The incident irked the village elders who decided to perform a cleansing ceremony which involved canning the man 100 times. This was meant to avert possible generational curse due to an incestuous act,” he said. Mr. Mboizi explained that both the father and the victim were undressed before the general public who had turned up in big numbers to witness the rare occurrence. The traditional ceremony which kicked off at 8.00 am and ended at 5.00 pm, was performed at his home in the presence of his family, clan members, and the community. “Hundreds of people from the nearby areas convened to have a glance at the man who turned his daughter as his wife. They later started beating up the man until the intervention of his son who showed up armed with a panga and a big stick,” Mr. Mboizi said. It is reported that rumors of the incestuous act in the family started making rounds in late June but there was no proof until the relatives intervened by beating up the girl until she revealed the truth. “The case was reported at Police Station but still the clan leaders opted to have these matters resolved at the clan level. These are clan matters despite having an element of rape and defilement. We wanted to first cleanse them then allow the law to take its course, ” Mr. Cyrus Omalla, the police commander said that if such a case was handled by the clan court, it was wrong because rape cases are capital offenses that should be reported and handled by the police and the court. "This case will definitely be investigated to establish whether actually, this man raped his daughter because these cases remain hidden in the communities which pose a big risk in the future,” he said. #SAYNOTORAPE #SAYNOTOCHILDABUSE

This is a true-life story that happened in Kenya. Tuko talks, a television station goes around, interviewing people that need help, feed, and help them, rescue those that need to be rescued. They came across the stranger who rescued these little angels from the hands of their evil father. Hear their story. When you go about helping the needy, then one day you realized that 1 out of 3 girls have been defiled by their own father, and you take full responsibility of the 3 girls, until a change happens. That is exactly the story of Gladys Wanjiku, the stranger who rescued the 3 girls from their evil father. She is a single mother of one, she said during this COVID 19 pandemic, she volunteered to always give food to people from door to door. There is a group of Asian citizens in Kenya, they provide food to be distributed to people living in the slummy part of Kenya, that is how I became a volunteer, by going to distribute the food to them. One this very day, my team and I went to deliver the food hamper, but when we got to this family, we were shocked by what we saw. Their sewage was overflowing, which is very close to their house, the pit toilet was filled up and overflowing with worms right in front of there doorstep. We also noticed that there was a little girl, who couldn't walk. We learned, whenever she wakes up, she crawls across the worms and the overflowing sewage to come out of the house. Coming back into the house, she does the same thing, this made us cry. When we asked their father why he lives like this, he said he didn't have the means to take care of the sewage problem. What about their mother? He said she left because she became addicted to alcohol, no one knows where she is till now. The sight of it was very disturbing, we cried because of the children and their condition. So my team and I had a brief meeting, we decided to contribute from our pockets, to raise funds for the extraction of the sewage, and promised to be paying them a regular visit with foods until the sewage is taken care of. The father is jobless, he needs help so I asked their father, to allow the 3 children to stay with me for the 3 days in which the extraction of the sewage will take place but he refused, and I guess I understood that part as a parent. We kept visiting them, buying them more food from our pockets, because the hamper is one package to a house, but we bought more food items from our pockets and gave them to anytime we visited them. One evening, I received a phone call, asking me to come to the children's house, that they were sleeping outside. When I got there, I discovered that they have been sleeping outside for 5 days under a tree, placing a sack on top of the tree, to serve as a shield over them because their landlord locked them out of their house. I went there and ask their father to keep the kids until we sort out the rent issue, he refused again. So we paid for the rent and the key was given to them. We then asked the man what kind of business he would like to do, he asked us to come back the next day, that he will have a reply by then. As we were about leaving the compound, the whole neighbors stood in our way, saying we won't leave the compound, until we hear what they were about telling us, so we listened. One of the neighbors told us how the 8-year-old girl came to her and told her that she feels pain in her private parts, from the front and the back. She asked her why she was feeling the pain, the little girl said because her father had been sleeping with her from the front, and back. So, we took her to my car for examination, and what we saw wasn't pleasant. When the men in the compound heard it, they wanted to deal with him, but he ran away. The neighbors said he guarded over the children so much so that no one keeps gets to know his little secrets, even when they were sleeping outside for 5 days, he never allows the neighbors to take the kids into their homes. My team and I, took the 3 girls to the hospital, where the doctor confirmed that she had been penetrated several times, and her hymen was even broken. This 8-year-old was underweight, malnourished, and weighs about 19kg. How does a father do this to her child? These kids said they don't take their bath, nor change clothes. The 3 girls were literally stinking. I took them home to my house girl, I told her to bath them and give then some big T-shirts to wear, because I had no baby clothes in the house, and it was very late at night. This was how they started living with me, it's been 3 months, and they are so much happier and gaining weight. All they needed apart from food, clothing, and shelter was care, attention, and a mother's love, which I am giving them. I am very happy to take care of them. #SAYNOTOCHIDABUSE #SAYNOTORAPE
