A man who was presumed "lost" after he left his home in Nyamaiya division 43 years ago on a treasure hunt resurfaced on Christmas Day in a wasted condition.

Omondi Mbura, now 83, left his home at Tonga village in Nyamaiya division within Nyamira County to look for greener pastures in North Rift that turned into a wild-goose chase.
