Why are young disabled people being forced to beg in Nairobi?
An investigation by Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Africa Eye has found young people being trafficked from Tanzania
An investigation by Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Africa Eye has found young people living with disabilities being trafficked from Tanzania to Nairobi. They found that they are then being forced to beg on the streets to bring in cash for the traffickers. Njeri Mwangi travelled to Tanzania and met parents who were tricked into letting their children move away, with the promise of a better life. And she joined Kenyan police as the information from her investigation led to arrests of alleged traffickers in the capital. She joins Alan Kasujja to talk about how her reporting unfolded.
