Philanthropist Silas Odhiambo has made good his word and built a decent house for a physically challenged woman who has been living in a kennel-like structure.

Jane and her siblings were abandoned by her mum

Anyango's dad is deceased, her mum abandoned them and the rest of the siblings ran away from home, save for her young brother who has solely taken on the burden of caring for her.

"Her brother's wife bathes her and whenever it rains, her brother carries her to a rescue centre because her house floods, causing her discomfort," he told a trusted Kenyan news media Tuko.co.ke in an interview today, May 31.

Rallied other well-wishers

Odhiambo was moved by their plight and rallied other well-wishers to build a decent house for the 36-year-old woman.

"Despite my body weakness, the Lord is still my strength. Jane Anyango who has been paralysed and sleeping in a kennel(dog house) has received a new house and beddings," said the philathropist.
