Political activist Bob Njagi, who was abducted and held incommunicado for 32 days in August 2024, has disclosed that he was detained in a room next to where missing Wajir MCA Yussuf Hussein Ahmed was being held.
Speaking to Citizen TV on Wednesday, Njagi recounted his ordeal, stating that when he was released, Ahmed was still alive and in the custody of their captors. He claimed to have seen Ahmed through a keyhole, confirming his presence in the adjacent room. According to Njagi, Ahmed was brought to the location on the night of September 13, 2024.
Njagi, who leads the Free Kenya Movement, said he had been keeping track of the days during his captivity. Upon his release, he conducted his own research and linked Ahmed’s abduction to a reported incident on Enterprise Road on the same date.
Ahmed, the MCA for Della Anole Ward, has been missing for five months. A month after his disappearance, a mutilated body believed to be his was recovered from Lake Yahud. However, two independent DNA tests confirmed that the remains did not belong to him.
The MCA was last seen in Nairobi while traveling in a taxi to Pangani from South C. The taxi driver, Wambua Kioko, reported that armed men emerged from two unmarked Toyota Land Cruiser Prados, blocked their path, and forcibly removed Ahmed from the vehicle. His whereabouts remain unknown.
