Robert Alai

Robert Alai is an activist of social justice. He gives over 90 million impressions with each social networking post he has. Alai has been in the news all over the world including articles in Epoch Times, Boston Newspapers, Australian and Canadian publications and even had appearances on BBC. Most Notable for his coverage on the West gate Mall terrorist attacks in Nairobi, Kenya. He kept over 100,000 people up to date with what was happening. He had noticed that the Kenyan government was hiding information and trying not to let this attack be seen by the public. Alai thought this was unjust and was going to do whatever he could to voice the attacks. In an interview Alai talks about wanting to be a voice for the voiceless and helping those who cannot help themselves. He has helped many throughout Kenya from a child sending school fees to the wrong person to a full on terrorist threat. He looks to help right the wrongs of this world and strives to see social justice upheld properly. He is hated and loved by many and understands that he may come off as "crazy" sometimes but he does what he thinks is right and in the end that is all that matters to him. I believe we need more people like Robert in this world. He is a person who chooses to do the right thing even when no one else is.
