Opposition leaders plan Tuesday meetings about alleged kidnappings across Kenya. Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka announced the gathering after condemning political harassment and intimidation tactics. He spoke against the alleged abduction of Juja MP George Koimburi, who disappeared Sunday afternoon. Kalonzo warned that even protected politicians face danger from unknown attackers. The incident shows ordinary Kenyans lack safety protection from mysterious kidnappers.
Coffee plantation workers found Koimburi unconscious Monday morning near Kibichoi, Kiambu County. The MP wore his navy suit from Sunday when two fake church worshippers grabbed him. His wife, Ann, watched the men force her husband into a Subaru Forester with altered plates. Police reject involvement claims and continue investigating the strange disappearance case. Officers want to question Koimburi about how people located him at the remote plantation.
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua criticized the kidnapping as systematic persecution against opposition politicians. The two attackers dressed like regular churchgoers and never identified themselves during the incident. Koimburi complained about beatings from his alleged captors, who took him after Sunday service. Police tried to arrest the MP on Friday over a land case, but he escaped capture. His phone has stayed off since Friday, when the failed arrest attempt occurred.
