In the video, she narrated that her son, like many other autistic children did not like the company of other people hence did not go past their compound’s gate.
"My son is autistic who loves playing a lot and very lovely. The fact that that he doesn't talk is very lovely and as you all know, autistic kids don't like company (of other people) and so he doesn't like the company," narrated Mesesi.
She further mentioned that he was in the company of a young girl who reportedly left him outside for less than ten minutes (to bring him tea) only to return and find the baby missing.
"That day, he was with our young girl here. The girl went inside the house to get a cup of tea for him and as she reported, she didn't take more than 10 minutes. When she came out, she didn't find the baby.
"We have looked for him everywhere, we have announced. The place is called Chepilat, it is near Sotik. We have given our posters and are all over social media,"
"I ask you to pray for me. Pray for my son wherever you are." She pleaded.
Kenyans online felt the young mother’s pain and took the opportunity to send her heartwarming messages to give her strength.
Doris Kerubo - May God c you through my sister.
