Vioja Mahakamani Actor Narrates How His Father Sold Him 

David Aliwa is a well-known example of “grass to grace,” as he was featured as a prosecutor in the Kenyan television series Vioja Mahakamani. When he recently talked about how his horrific childhood experiences had affected his adult life, it became even more clear.

The actor said in an interview with Vioja Mahakamani’s host media firm that the reasons behind his tense relationship with his father, who is now deceased, stemmed from injuries sustained during his early years.

Aliwa recalled the time he and his siblings had to spend living in an Indian home that their father had sold them into. Today, he serves as a mentor and counselor to young males. To maintain the family’s financial situation, this deed was performed.

When the now-television celebrity was just seven years old, his father, an immigration officer in Kisumu County, handed him over to unidentified guys. He spent two years serving his newfound “family.”

According to Aliwa, their mother, who was never aware of what had transpired at the time, searched for them for almost two years, before she finally tracked them down to their owner’s home. “These Indians used to take African children from people who are unable to be with them, and try to school you as you work for them,” Aliwa narrated.

Later, when he was 14 years old and his mother died seven years later, Aliwa was left to support himself and his brothers. Aliwa was lucky enough to witness his family’s struggles while working as a mandazi and ice cream vendor in Kayole. He also benefited from the support of those in his immediate vicinity and became an inspiration for young males.

He said, “As a child, I witnessed the suffering that women endured—unfortunately at the hands of my father—which motivated me to learn why men choose to start families rather than fend for themselves.

Members of Aliwa’s acting group have commended him for his guidance, especially in mentoring young men, terming him a leader, and mentor to many young people looking up to him.

One of Aliwa’s mentees, Fred Moya, said, “I have learned that to be a man one needs to be smart and hardworking, with self-drive to reach your goals in life.” Another acting club member described a similar strained connection with his father, saying it took some time for him to get his father to understand his life decisions and be against his acting profession.

“My father had to let me go and accept the circumstances. Teddy Mutsi said, “At least now I can afford to pay my rent, buy food, and support my family in some way.”
