Kenyans took to social media to search for Dr. Mumbi Seraki after she went missing four days ago.
Using the hashtag #FreeMumbiSeraki, people on X (formerly Twitter) speculated about what could have happened to her. Since her disappearance, rumors and conspiracy theories started spreading, with many fearing the worst.
Her social media accounts had gone silent, adding to the concern. As the days passed, anxiety grew, and her family decided to file a missing person report. The news of her disappearance spread fast, sparking discussions and calls for answers.
After days of uncertainty, relief finally came when Dr. Mumbi was found alive. Details about what happened to her are still unclear, but reports suggest she was lured out of her house on Saturday morning by a friend, a lawyer, for a meeting.
According to blogger Francis Gaitho, Mumbi later revealed that she was drugged and remembers very little of what happened next. What she does recall is being in a freak road accident, which left her injured and in shock.
Her car was completely destroyed in a fire, and all her important belongings, including her phone and ID, were burnt to ashes. She survived with injuries to her hands and head, but the experience left her shaken.
Reports indicate that she had been in the hospital since the accident and was only discharged on Tuesday. While there are still many unanswered questions, the fact that she is alive has brought some relief to those who were worried about her safety.
After being discharged, Dr. Mumbi took to social media to confirm that she was okay. She thanked everyone who showed concern and helped spread the word about her disappearance.
In her post, she admitted that she was still in pain, both physically and emotionally, but she was slowly regaining clarity. She also promised to share the full story once she had fully recovered.
Her message reassured her followers, but at the same time, it raised even more questions about what really happened to her.
Many people are now calling for a proper investigation into the incident. The fact that she was allegedly drugged and left in a dangerous situation has sparked concerns about whether this was a planned attack.
Some believe that her outspoken nature as a social commentator may have made her a target, while others feel it is too early to draw conclusions.
For now, all eyes are on Dr. Mumbi as people wait for her to share her full account of what happened. Meanwhile, there is growing pressure on authorities to take the matter seriously and ensure those responsible are held accountable.
Her case has once again highlighted the risks faced by outspoken public figures in Kenya, leaving many questioning just how safe they really are.
