Former Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju has resurfaced at his residence in Karen after going missing under unclear circumstances since Saturday, sparking concern among family, associates, and the public.
Tuju, a seasoned politician and former Rarieda MP, confirmed on Monday that he is safe but raised alarm over what he described as suspicious movements prior to his disappearance. Speaking briefly after reappearing, he claimed that he had noticed unknown individuals trailing him in the days leading up to the incident.

“I was being followed by people I could not identify, which raised serious concerns about my safety,” Tuju said, without divulging further details.
His sudden disappearance had triggered anxiety within political circles, with close allies reportedly unable to reach him for days. Questions had begun to emerge regarding his whereabouts, with some calling for security agencies to intervene.
Tuju’s reappearance now shifts focus to the allegations he has made, which could prompt investigations by state security organs to establish whether there was indeed a threat to his life or if other factors may have been at play.
The incident adds to a growing list of cases in Kenya where high-profile individuals have reported surveillance or threats under unclear circumstances, raising concerns about personal security among political figures.
Authorities are yet to issue an official statement regarding the matter or confirm whether any investigations have been launched.
More details are expected to emerge as Tuju engages investigators and potentially records a formal statement.
