Mwingi Man appeals for help to buy artificial hands after his were Chopped off at work

30-year-old Musyimi Kilonzo from Mwingi in Kitui County is appealing to well-wishers to help him raise money to buy artificial hands after he was injured while working in Nairobi.

Musyimi says that his hands were chopped off in 2018 when working with a tyre company as maintenance casual from 2014 in Nairobi and up to date they have never compensated him.

“I was working in Nairobi to see that ends meet for my family when the unfortunate happened to me. I have never been compensated they only took me to hospital for first aid and promised that they will cater for the bills to buy new arms.” Musyimi said.

He added that in 2019 the company sent him to Kijabe Mission Hospital where he found that the cost of buying the new ‘hands’ is six million shillings and when he told them that from that point they have never called him back nor responded to his numerous calls.

“I would like to appeal to anyone who is in a position to help me to restore my hands or in any way they can be of help to me kindly assist me because my family is living a desperate life since I was the breadwinner and since then life has been hard,” Musyimi added.

Musyimi revealed that the only expenses the company has catered for him were only 5,000 after working with them for over 4 years, “They last sent me 5,000 in May 2019 when they sent me to Kijabe and I have children in school who are depending on me, no compensation and I was injured while working in the company and they tend not to care about me anymore.”

“My hands are chopped off I can’t do anything and I have been trying to get help from the county government all in vain.” Musyimi went on.

He also disclosed that he stopped going to the clinic since there was no money to go for a checkup and thus he is still in pain since one of the hands never recovered fully from the injuries subjected.

“For those who would like to call me you can reach me via 0706544403 and I would appreciate any assistance, “Musyimi appealed.
