"I didn't invite them to help me, but they asked me to step aside that they would help me do it," he wrote on Facebook.

When they were done, he gave them a lift since they were from work, after which they disclosed that they trek daily from Mukuru kwa Njenga to their work station around Wilson Airport.

Given that the distance is long, they either trek via the bypass or rely on occasional well wishers to give them lifts.

Maurice bought them 2 bikes

Maurice disclosed that the men have no option but to trek because their daily pay of KSh 300-500 ( GH¢23.49 - GH¢39.15) is insufficient to take care of their needs and transport.

It was a revelation that touched the lead servant at Kings Gathering and Destiny Voices Media House, so much that he decided to buy them bicycles.
