Kenya has contacted Ugandan officials to locate two citizens who disappeared in Kampala earlier this week. Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary Korir Sing'oei said the Kenyan High Commission is working with Ugandan institutions to find Bob Njagi and Nicholas Oyoo, who vanished on Wednesday, Oct. 1.
Armed individuals allegedly abducted the pair near a petrol station in Kamuli after they attended opposition rallies with politician Bobi Wine. Witnesses reported seeing four people force the Kenyans into a grey van before their phones stopped working. Ugandan police denied holding them in custody.
The High Commission sent a diplomatic note on Friday, Oct. 3, requesting assistance from Uganda's Foreign Affairs Ministry. Advocacy group Vocal Africa alerted Nairobi about the disappearance and requested urgent intervention. The families of both men await updates about ongoing search efforts.
