Published on January 9, 2020, a family in Kitengela estate in Kajiado County is searching for their Form Three daughter who disappeared on Tuesday while on her way to Materi Girls' Centre High School in Tharaka-Nithi County.
According to her father, Stanley Ngotho, Stephy Wangui was accompanied by her auntie to Nkubu town in Meru County where she boarded a 14-seater public service vehicle heading to Materi area.
Reports from other students who had boarded the matatu with Wangui indicate that she did not arrive at school.
‘Other girls told their teacher that my daughter alighted from the vehicle after traveling for about a kilometer from Nkubu town but they didn’t reveal whether she was left alone or in company of another person,’ said Mr Ngotho.
After the school management discovered that his daughter had not reported by Wednesday evening, the deputy head teacher called his wife, Purity Naitore Ngotho, and informed her of the shocking information.
Mr Ngotho has reported the matter to Nkubu Police Station and is hopeful that their daughter will be found safe.
He urged anyone who finds his daughter to report to the nearest police station or administration office or call him on: 0722839958.
