Wednesday, March 26, 2025 - Muthwani Ward Member of County Assembly (MCA), Dominic Maitha, has been reported missing since Monday, March 24th, 2025.
According to his wife, Juliet Ngare, Maitha left for the
Machakos County Assembly that morning, passing through their rural home in
Kaloleni, Machakos Sub-county, but did not return home as expected.
Ngare last spoke with him around 10:30 pm that evening, when
he assured her that he will spend the night in the village.
However, subsequent attempts to reach him on his three
mobile phones have been unsuccessful, as all have been switched off.
Concerned family members reported his disappearance to the
Machakos Police Station on Tuesday, March 25th.
The disappearance has caused an uproar among relatives,
supporters, and political leaders, who are urging authorities to expedite
efforts to locate him.
Kinanie MCA, Francis Kavyu, and Mbiuni MCA, Peter Kilonzo,
have called for Maitha’s immediate release, alleging that the County Government
and Governor Wavinya Ndeti may be involved due to Maitha’s recent threats to
initiate an impeachment motion against her.
The MCA had expressed fears about his security before he
went missing.
He claimed that he was being trailed by unknown individuals.
“Goons were hired to attack me on Friday at Athi River
together with Francis Wambua Kavyu but the mission failed. On Saturday the same
happened at Githunguri jetview primary school. It failed too. On Monday they
trailed me at night but I escaped their dragnet. I'm ready to die but not ready
to be compromised,” he wrote on social media before his mysterious
disappearance.
