Members of Parliament have raised concerns over the rising number of children reported missing in the country, saying that the matter requires urgent intervention.
Kisii County MP Dorice Donya said the recent trend has caused widespread fears, anxiety and outrage among families.
Donya revealed that reports from government and children protection agencies indicate that hundreds of children continue to disappear in unclear circumstances, with some cases linked to trafficking, abduction, exploitation, neglect and other criminal activities.
