Gov Mutua's Aide Speaks Out After Being Tortured for 36 Hours

Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua's aide, Geoffrey Kwatemba, has spoken up for the first time since his abduction by a Nairobi gang.

Taking to social media, Geoffrey, who works as Machakos County government communication officer, disclosed that he was abducted and tortured for 36 hours.

He was, however, grateful to his boss and all those Kenyans who contributed for his ransom money that eventually led to his freedom.

The victim, who once worked as a journalist at Milele FM, was especially thankful to his fellow scribes for making good noise that raised awareness of his abduction.

"I want to take this opportunity first to thank my creator Jehovah God for his supernatural protection for more than 36 hours in the hands of the enemy.

"I (also) want to thank my boss Dr Alfred Mutua and colleagues at the office of the Governor Machakos County," posted Kwatemba.

"My thanks (also go out) to all who chipped in a single coin to ensure we pay the amount," he continued.

Kwatemba, who is also a recording gospel musician, was reportedly kidnapped by unknown people upon arriving in Nairobi.

He had been waylaid by the kidnappers after attending Doreen Otipo's album launch in West Pokot.
