Family seeks answers on missing Huduma Centre Boss. The family of Hussein Abdirahman Mohamed has moved to court, demanding answers over his sudden disappearance.
Hussein serves as Wajir Huduma Centre boss and Assistant County Commissioner. He vanished on Tuesday, July 8.
Earlier that day, he attended a public event officiated by Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku. Court documents include photos showing Hussein seated among top government officials during the function. That marked his final public sighting. Hours later, he allegedly went missing without explanation.
Through an urgent habeas corpus application, the family now wants the state held responsible for his whereabouts.
They insist the government must produce him and explain the events that followed the official event. The case has sparked concern across Wajir and beyond, with growing pressure on the state to respond.
Frustrated and desperate, the family of Hussein Abdirahman Mohamed has filed a petition at the High Court. Represented by lawyer Danstan Omari, they want the state compelled to produce Hussein—dead or alive—or at least reveal his whereabouts.
The lawyer told the court that Hussein had no known enemies or disputes. He described him as a dedicated public servant who vanished shortly after attending an official function with top government officials.
Court submission
“This man gave his life to public service. He was there one moment, and the next, he disappeared,” the court documents read.
The family reported Hussein’s disappearance at Sojir Police Station in Wajir. But five days later, police had made no progress. As time passes, the family grows increasingly worried for his safety.
Meanwhile, Lawyer Omari believes state agents may have taken Hussein and are holding him without communication, violating his constitutional rights.
“Every hour without information is pure agony for this family. Kenya’s Constitution protects liberty. No one should vanish without a trace,” Omari told the court.
The family now wants the court to set a deadline. They are requesting that Hussein be presented in court by July 14. If not, the state must provide a full and credible explanation of what happened to him.
The case has stirred concern and sparked questions over enforced disappearances and accountability within government systems.
