Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K) leader Eugene Wamalwa has demanded an end to the abduction, torture, enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings of young individuals in Kenya. In a statement released on his X account on September 26, 2026, Wamalwa cited the cases of activists Collins Otieno and Boniface Mulinge Muteti, who were abducted earlier in the week and found alive the following day.

Wamalwa emphasized the need to restore the rule of law in the country, particularly after Otieno's recovery and hospitalization following his abduction and torture. Otieno, discovered by a boda boda rider near Thika Road, was found disoriented, weak, and injured. Muteti was also found in the Lukenya area of Machakos County after going missing on September 21, 2026, and reported to have endured a four-day ordeal of physical abuse while in captivity.

Wamalwa urged the government to uphold the rule of law and protect the rights of young people, as well as addressed the political leadership of the Mount Kenya region, supporting the endorsement of Kithure Kindiki as the spokesman for Mount Kenya.
