Former Nandi Hills Member of Parliament Alfred Keter was reportedly abducted on Sunday, June 30, by unknown people.
The abduction done in broad daylight happened when the former legislator was leaving a church service in Nairobi.
Clips seen by Kenyans.co.ke showed the former MP being taken out of his SUV and whisked away by unknown people in a white pickup truck.
"Abducted, headed to an unknown destination," an account associated with Keter posted moments after the incident.
Keter has been a sharp critic of Kenya Kwanza's administration especially on the now-withdrawn Finance Bill.
Several leaders including Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino pointed fingers at the Kenya police alleging that they were behind the abduction.
"Alfred Keter arrested in Church. Intimidation tactics will not work," the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) elected MP stated.
Notably, Keter was arrested a day after he toured Bondo in Siaya County in the company of Babu Owino where he remarked that the Kenya Kwanza administration would be a one-term government.
"I will say as it is without any fear, the people of Kenya lost hope in this government. You can lie to them once but not always.," Keter had spoken of the Kenya Kwanza administration.
He further stated he, that in the coming days would embark on a countrywide tour to discredit President William Ruto's government over failed promises.
Keter had a falling out with the President after he was denied a United Democratic Alliance (UDA) ticket heading to the 2022 general elections.
The former MP maintained that he won the party primaries but was denied the ticket. In February 2024, he clarified that he was not bitter about the developments
