I used to hear voices of people calling me - Benard Gakuru. | Tuko TV
Benard Gakuru, 33, has battled addiction for years to an extent he could hear voices of people calling him when drunk.

He says when he took his first alcohol sip years ago he felt like a champion, conquering all his boyhood fears. It's that first sip that dragged him into a hole that has taken him more than 13 years to dig himself out. It started getting worse for him when he first dropped out of campus during his third year because of his addiction. Free time away from school gave him even more time to engage in drinking sprees with his peers.

He recalls not being sober for a single day in a span of eight years. Alcoholism he says stole a lot from him, broke his relationships with his parents and extended family. He sold everything in his house including his clothes to feed this addiction.

His parents almost abandoned him out of despair when he started stealing from their own home. Benard says he only failed to sell his parents seats because he knew they would easily notice they are missing. The strained relationship he had with his dad broke him daily. He was given the last chance to life by his parents when they opened a 'Milk Bar' for him, but only a few months in, it closed down. One fine morning, three years ago a miracle happened in his life that he is yet to explain how it turned his life around.
