Former Chief Justice David Maraga has called on President William Ruto to issue a public apology to the families of individuals who have been abducted, emphasizing that such an acknowledgment is crucial for healing and justice. Maraga criticized the government’s failure to address the issue adequately, noting that the absence of an apology exacerbates the pain of grieving families.

This statement comes amid ongoing concerns over the abduction of young Kenyans, particularly those perceived as critics of the government. Maraga has previously condemned these acts, describing them as a betrayal of the nation’s future and a violation of constitutional rights. He has consistently called for accountability and the immediate release of all individuals held unlawfully.
