Saralnama

Two Kenyan human rights activists went missing in Uganda. Bob Njagi and Nicholas Oyoo were reportedly abducted by armed men at a petrol station while attending Bobi Wine's campaign event. Bobi Wine, a Ugandan opposition leader running for president, condemned the abduction. He claimed the Ugandan government targeted the activists for associating with him. A witness said four armed men forced the pair into a vehicle. Kenyan police were unaware of the incident. Ugandan police have been asked to comment. The disappearances are similar to past incidents involving activists in East Africa. Concerns are growing about possible collaboration between East African governments to suppress dissent.
