My Name is
Jehu
Jehu
Jehu’s mother died of yellow fever and his father was a policeman killed in the war. Since the death of their mother Jehu and his sister Miatta, have lived with their grandmother. She has struggled under the burden of caring for these two children and has very little to provide for their needs. Jehu and his sister Miata were approved by Social Welfare and they now have a new home at the Rafiki Village. Jehu enjoys learning about science and hopes to be a pilot when he grows up.
