I hated my life as a grave robber - John Kibera, the street pastor who once loved robbing the dead

Why did you turn to crime at such a tender age?

My parents separated while I was a young boy and my mother remarried and relocated to Nakuru. There, my stepfather mistreated me and denied me education. I had to fend for myself when I was still in class three. I was the first born in a family of five.
