Mugithi singer Samidoh vividly recalls how his father forced him to sleep in a lice-infested kennel with their family’s dog.
The Gikuyu vernacular singer narrated the events that made his dad force him to sleep in the dog’s house, recalling how he didn’t sleep even for one second as he was attacked by lice and the cold.
Samidoh said the whole drama started when he returned home late at night after following a caravan that was playing local Mugithi songs.
He knocked on the door and his father let him in and even allowed him to eat. The singer was caught by a rude surprise as his father descended on him with slaps while he was eating.
Samidoh’s father was mad at him for returning home late. He beat him silly before he dragged him out of the house and threw him in the kennel to sleep with their family’s dog.
Below is Samidoh’s narration of the events of the day he slept in a kennel.
