DCI scales up search for Tuju after failing to trace him on Sunday - March 2026
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations is intensifying its search for former Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju after his vehicle was found abandoned in Nairobi's Karen suburb with his phone switched off. Tuju was reported missing by his family on Sunday, March 22, and subsequently resurfaced two days later, stating he went into hiding due to fears for his safety after being followed by unidentified individuals. The DCI has accused Tuju of staging his own abduction and faced challenges accessing his residence during the investigation. Political leaders including ODM's Oburu Oginga and party officials have demanded answers from the government regarding the circumstances surrounding his disappearance, while Sifuna urged the State to produce Tuju.
