Peter Mani, 37, went missing from the Kwa Maiko town in Githunguri, Kiambu County shortly after completing some menial jobs he was doing for traders in the market.

“He did not join the protests,” she said.

His sister says he earns only enough for his consumption and on the material day, was headed for Kwa Maiko after receiving some money from their mother.

“He left home at around 2pm and went to Kwa Maiko for his usual jobs, which he did and the traders say that they have never seen him since then.”

Ng’ang’a says that although Mani does not have a phone, he has memorized both her number and their mothers number and is yet to contact them after more than a week.

The family reported the matter at the Marige Police Post under OB number 02/28/06/2026 but are yet to hear from the police or members of the public about the whereabouts of their kin.
