THE JOURNALIST & THE STREETBOYS

Anthony Rescues Gift
Anthony Mulongo was born into a well-off Kenyan family and was on the fast track to becoming one of the top journalists on the continent of Africa. He gave it all up.

While reporting stories in the coastal city of Mombasa, Anthony began to be followed by boys living on the street who were fascinated by his video camera. He became friends with them; they trusted him and took him to places where they wouldn’t take anyone else. The brutality of street life changed his view of these boys from being ‘rogue children’ who had ran away from home to being the victims of a broken system who were abused and exploited for being very poor.

He started to feed them, fight for them through his reporting, and advocate for them with his network of friends who were lawyers and doctors and other professionals.

When the streetboys told him of Gift, he took her into his house, hired a lady to look after her, and paid for her to attend school. She effectively became his daughter.photo-paper.png
