Former Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale on Sunday got lauded online for his good deeds at Shinyalu, Kakamega County.
Mr. Khalwale on Sunday surprised a banana-hawking boy with school uniform and shoes.
The boy was hawking bananas at the gate of church in Shinyalu, Kakamega county, to raise money for his uniform when the former senator came to his rescue.
Khalwale topped his surprise with brand new school shoes for the boy whose only concern was uniform.
The former legislator said his act was informed by the fact that everyone deserves a good life.
Khalwale’s kind act was lauded online, but Kenyans quickly urged him not to parade needy children in front of cameras.
Romana wrote; “Very good Daktari. But please, leave the cameras behind.”
Dr Hans added; “Its better to leave the camera aside when helping the poor.”
Rafael commented; “When you help the poor leave the camera at home.”
Margaret Kamau stated; “You do not help then shout it on top of the mountain!!! Tenda wema nenda zako!”
Oscar Ouma added; “You did the right thing although you didn’t need to publicise…Tenda wema nenda zako.”
