A family in the Motosiet area of Cherangany has been grappling with distress and uncertainty since their 24-year-old son, Abel Kiprop, mysteriously disappeared in July last year. The pain of his absence has been unbearable for his loved ones, who are now making a public appeal for assistance in tracing his whereabouts.
Kiprop, described by his family as a calm, humble, and somewhat introverted individual, had left home on the fateful day to visit a local shop to purchase household items. That was the last time he was seen, and since then, his family has been searching for answers.
His distraught mother, Regina Songol, recalls the day vividly, stating that her son showed no signs of stress or distress that could suggest he was troubled. “He was his usual self, quiet but in good spirits. We have no idea what could have happened to him,” she lamented.
The family has since sought assistance from the police, reported the matter to the authorities, and conducted extensive searches in local hospitals and other relevant places, but their efforts have not borne fruit. Despite their relentless search, Kiprop remains missing, deepening their anguish with each passing day.
Speculation is mounting within the family and the local community, with fears that he may have been abducted. However, with no concrete leads or clues, the uncertainty has only intensified their pain. The case has left the family feeling helpless, yet they continue to hold onto the hope of reuniting with their son.
Now, in a desperate plea, the family is urging the government and relevant authorities to intervene and intensify efforts to locate Kiprop. They are also appealing to the public for any information that may help in tracing him.
The disappearance of loved ones is a heartbreaking ordeal that no family should have to endure. As the search for Abel Kiprop continues, his family clings to hope, praying that someone, somewhere, will provide the missing piece of the puzzle that will bring their son home.
