Sonko Rescue Team has yet again retrieved three infant bodies from Nairobi River.

Taking to his official twitter account on Sunday July 19, 2020, Nairobi governor Mike Sonko revealed that the team had retrieved the bodies near Kogocho slums.

Sonko said that triplets might just have been killed by their mother, and thrown into the Nairobi River.

Sonko while condemning the incident said that he keeps on feeling sad whenever he sees such incidents all the time.

Sonko noted that there are women outside there struggling to have a child, while someone who has been blessed is going ahead to kill them.

“TRIPLETS KILLED: Just a few minutes ago, our team yet again retrieved 3 infant bodies from Nairobi River, Korogocho slums. I keep on feeling so sad seeing this all the time, bearing in mind some women are still struggling to have kids just to be called mums,” Sonko tweeted.

This is not the first time infant bodies are being retrieved from Nairobi River.

In June this year, bodies of two infants have been retrieved from Nairobi River in Korogocho. Members of Komb Green Solutions found the bodies as they cleaned the river

This brought to 21 the number of bodies retrieved from the river in the informal settlement since the launch of the Nairobi River Restoration Project early last year.

At the time, the tally stood at 16 infants and five adults.

In September last year, Sonko called for a 24-hour surveillance of the river to stop the dumping of bodies.

Residents were also asked to be on the lookout and report the culprits to the authorities.
