37-year-old Charles Odhiambo returned home alive and kicking, close to six months after ‘disappearing’ from home.

Odhiambo left his home to Kisumu, but his family could not trace him. 

“I left home almost six months ago. One day, I heard that I had died and buried. That is when I decided to come back home,” said Odhiambo. 

According to his brother Bernard Ouma, after Odhiambo left they started receiving massages from unknown people indicating that his brother had died.

They were allegedly directed to a mortuary in Kisumu where they ‘recovered Odhiambo’s body’ and went ahead with the burial.

But as fate would have it, a relative bumped into Odhiambo in the streets of Kisumu selling groundnuts.

“The relative told me, Odhiambo you know you died and you were buried back at home but you are still alive. I cannot leave you behind, let us go home,” Odhiambo says.

His family now wants the government to step in and help exhume the body that was buried a month ago.

“We appeal the government to help us exhume this body now that our brother is alive and kicking,” said Ouma.
