Mwabili, popularly known on X as TL Elder, was last seen in the company of his driver before a vehicle with armed unidentified men kidnapped him.
His family called for immediate action from both the Kenyan and Tanzanian authorities and stop the recent rise in cases of kidnapping.
“He should be taken to the police, or arraigned in court for the law to take its course. Enforced disappearances are not the way for Kenya and Tanzania where he was taken. Mama Samia, do you see what is happening? Why do leaders allow this to happen?” said Mwabili’s sister and journalist Isabella Kituri.
Mwabili had previously confirmed that he had in the past received suspicious visitors who insisted on seeing him.
“Our fellow activist had said that the Kenyan security agencies were after him. His mother has also told us of a time, last year, when DCI officers visited her home and told her to warn her son against activism.
The family has also informed us of unidentified people, believed to be the police, who have been visiting Mwabili’s workplace in Tanzania posing as clients and insisting to see him to say thank you for discounts,” said VOCAL Africa Rapid Response Officer Odhiambo Ojiro
