Kenya social media singing star finds a new home

Nine-year-old Tredy Bradly used to live on the streets in Kisumu, but when a video of him singing went viral on social media, his life began to turn around. His rendition of Mercy Masika's 'Mwema' captivated Kenyans, most of all a journalist called Daizy Kayech. She's helped him gain a full scholarship to attend the Sankofa Academy, and is looking after him in Nairobi as his guardian. The Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ's Akwasi Sarpong spoke to both of them to hear more about their story.
