Kenyan investigative journalist, Parselelo Ole Kantai who went missing has been found safe.
Confirming the news, journalist John Allan Namu said Kantai was in the safe hands of his family.
“Parselelo ole Kantai has been found, and is in the safe hands of his family. We ask for patience as we seek to establish the full facts of these last couple of days.
We thank everyone who has called, texted and otherwise helped out in a very distressing period,” Allan tweeted.
Posters announcing that he had gone missing, circulated on social media for the better part of Saturday evening, October 8, with the family urging anyone with information to present to the police.
According to Kantai’s sister, Resson Duff, Kantai seemed calm and okay and was in the process of going to a meeting.
“Please help me find my brother. He was fine on Tuesday. Just fine. Going to a meeting. And then nothing. Total silence. He is an investigative journalist. Please help,” Duff stated.
“My cousin and brother Parselelo has been offline. Do let us know if you are able to help trace him,” Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) Communications Director, Wallace Kantai also shared the poster.
