Former Chief Justice David Maraga has urged the Kenyan government to employ strong diplomatic and legal measures to secure the safe return of activists Bob Njagi and Nicolas Oyoo, who were reportedly abducted in Uganda on October 1, 2025. Their disappearance nearly a month ago has sparked outrage and concerns over regional human rights.

• Njagi and Oyoo, members of the Free Kenya Movement, were reportedly seized by armed men in eastern Uganda after attending a forum linked to opposition leader Bobi Wine’s campaign.
• Uganda’s High Court dismissed a habeas corpus application, stating there was no proof security agencies were holding them, effectively categorizing them as “missing persons.”
• Maraga criticized the Kenyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs for its “criminal silence” and lack of diplomatic pressure on Kampala, warning of a growing "cross-border tyranny" in East Africa.
