The mysterious disappearance of Juja Member of Parliament has sparked widespread speculation, but seasoned public figure Dr. Isaack Hassan has urged caution, emphasizing the need for verified facts before drawing conclusions.
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Dr. Hassan addressed the growing concern over the whereabouts of the legislator, whose sudden absence has stirred political tension and public anxiety. While some have suggested the MP may have been abducted, others claim he might be evading law enforcement due to undisclosed investigations.
“A statement cannot be made without having elements of proof,” Dr. Hassan stated firmly. “If he has kidnapped himself because he is running away from the relevant authorities, that happens. We must allow the proper investigative agencies to do their work.”
His remarks come amid a wave of unverified claims circulating on social media, with conflicting narratives ranging from forced abduction to strategic disappearance. Security agencies have since launched investigations, but have yet to release official findings or confirm foul play.
Dr. Hassan, known for his previous role in the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), called for restraint among political players and the public. “In such situations, speculation can cause unnecessary panic and politicize what should be a matter of national concern handled through formal channels,” he added.
Meanwhile, Juja constituents and fellow lawmakers have demanded swift action and transparency from the government. As the search continues, the unfolding situation serves as a stark reminder of the importance of responsible reporting and the dangers of premature judgment in high-profile cases.
