A five-year-old girl is in despair as she silently watches her peers play outside their homestead at Manyani Estate, Nakuru Town.
The girl, newly enrolled to school, suffers from Down Syndrome, a genetic disorder that causes an intellectual disability and developmental delays. The condition has made her lack speech. However, society seems not kind to the girl, and her condition has left her stigmatised and isolated, forcing her to stay inside their rental house, where she feels safer.
