Joseph Kang'ara

Joseph Kang'ara, a 27-year-old man from Jua Kali estate in Kakamega County, has been thrust into the spotlight following his alleged abduction during a National Youth Service graduation ceremony in August 2025, where he attended to support his younger brother. His mother, Jane Njeri, claims he was taken by individuals believed to be military officers, amidst chaos caused by anti-government protests at the event. Kang'ara is described as a disciplined young man, and his disappearance has sparked widespread concern and calls for his release.
