Mombasa Catholic Archbishop Martin Kivuva has called on President William Ruto to take immediate action to stop the rising cases of child abductions in Kenya.
Speaking in a public address, Kivuva expressed deep concern over the safety of children in the country and urged the government to prioritize their protection.
In his statement, Archbishop Kivuva said, “Stop the ongoing abduction of our children.”
He emphasized the emotional and psychological impact that these kidnappings have on children and their families.
According to the Archbishop, the number of children being abducted has been increasing, and the government must take stronger measures to address the issue.
The Archbishop’s call comes amid growing reports of children being abducted for various reasons, including trafficking and exploitation.
These incidents have sparked fear and anger among Kenyan parents and communities, who are demanding better security for their children.
Archbishop Kivuva further pointed out that the law enforcement agencies need to act more decisively to prevent these crimes.
“We need stronger enforcement of laws to protect our children,” he said.
His words reflect the frustration many Kenyans feel, as many believe that the authorities have not done enough to combat this problem.
The Archbishop called for closer collaboration between the government, security agencies, and the public to ensure that kidnappers are caught and brought to justice.
Many people have rallied behind Kivuva’s appeal, with parents, religious leaders, and social organizations showing their support.
“We cannot sit back and watch as our children continue to be taken from us,” one concerned parent said. “It is time the government steps in and makes our children’s safety a priority.”
While the government has yet to make a public response to Kivuva’s plea, President Ruto and other leaders have previously voiced concerns over child abductions and promised action.
However, critics argue that more urgent measures are required to tackle the root causes of these abductions and to ensure the safety of all children.
