Published on July 29, 2019, a photo has been making waves on social media, showcasing a different side of the Nairobi traffic police.

Contrary to their often heartless and uncaring image, a police officer was seen helping a disabled woman cross a busy road, an act that has not been witnessed in a long time.

Here is the photo that has captured the hearts of many:
