Kenyan President William Ruto pledged to end the disappearances of government critics, reversing his previous stance dismissing the incidents as 'fake news.' Despite the promise, there are still concerns regarding the alleged involvement of government agents in the abductions.
Kenya n President William Ruto has promised to stop abductions of government critics, in an apparent change of stance for a leader who has previously called the wave of disappearances “fake news.” Ruto, his government officials and police have maintained for months that there were no abductions. Ruto has also demanded names of the missing from families, and told parliament that the reports were fabricated to tarnish his government’s name.
footage from a shop in Njeru’s apartment building showed two men ambushing him before dragging him into a car that speeds off. “Where do you draw the line between power and dictatorship?,” Njeru’s cousin Ansity Kendi Christine said in reference to the abduction. Christine, who says their whole family voted for Ruto, added: “It’s a shame I will carry for the rest of my life.
