A family in Kisii is appealing for government intervention to repatriate the body of their 24-year-old daughter, Emily Nyamoita Nyabuto, who died under mysterious circumstances in Lebanon a month ago. Despite receiving official confirmation of her death, the family has not seen her body and faces significant financial challenges to bring her remains home.

• Emily Nyamoita Nyabuto traveled to Lebanon in 2023 for work, seeking to uplift her family from poverty.
• Her mother, Janes Mokeira, last spoke to Emily on June 14, shortly before receiving news of her sudden passing from a friend.
• The family has only received a letter from immigration authorities in Beirut confirming her death, but no body.
