Talking to Durgas TV Show about the Class 10 student, his mother said that he was a very nice boy and she left him sleeping in the house, but when she got home, she did not find him.

“I arrived, and I realized that he had left the house, and when I asked, I realized that one of the houses that were being demolished had fallen on him. He had been called to play football, but his football shoes, uniform and football were all there,” he said.

“Later, he brought her food, and the next day, I heard that there was an incident, and we started looking. Her father said that there was something he was doing to her and that made the family calm,” said the lady.

In the morning, they went to work, but at 12 pm, Andrew’s sister, who followed up on the matter, saw her brother’s pictures online, and they looked for Andrew in the morgue; then he realized that his brother was the only unknown.

“I visited the family of the late Andrew Otiato, a Class 10 student at Olympic High School, who is mourning his tragic death following the demolition of Highrise Ward, where a building collapsed, killing three people on the spot,” he said.

Andrew’s family is now appealing for help to help bury their son. His mother, Eunice Akoth Omolo, calls the good samaritans for any help: 0704784231
