- Kavuli, who was interrogated over his critical social media posts, described the ordeal as a calculated effort to silence his dissenting voice
- The Nairobi Gen Z added that he believes his masked abductors may have ties to law enforcement and President William Ruto’s regime
Kavuli, a vocal Gen Z activist, has recounted his harrowing experience at the hands of armed abductors.
Arriving at Ngong Police Station at exactly 4 PM on Wednesday, accompanied by his two lawyers, Kavuli revisited the station for the second time to record his detailed statement about the ordeal that shook the nation.
Kavuli, who was abducted and later abandoned in Moi’s Bridge, described the horrifying treatment he endured during his captivity.
According to his lawyer, Shadrack Wambui, the young activist was subjected to brutal violence intended to silence his critical stance on governmental issues.
“Our client endured inhumane treatment meant to intimidate him into submission,” Wambui revealed. “He was beaten, brutalized, and interrogated about his social media posts critical of the government.”

Adding insult to injury, Kavuli disclosed that his abductors forcibly shaved his hair and beard, acts he deemed as a deliberate violation of his dignity.
“They stripped him of his identity—something as personal as his hair—without his consent. This was a calculated effort to demean and silence him,” Wambui emphasized.

Blindfolded throughout his captivity, Kavuli was unable to identify his captors, who masked themselves and wielded weapons typical of law enforcement. His lawyers fear the abductors may be linked to state agencies.
“He couldn’t see their faces, but he remembers their voices. These were not ordinary criminals; they carried guns and chains,” Wambui alleged.
Despite threats to keep his experience private, Kavuli has courageously shared his story, igniting widespread outrage and raising questions about state accountability.
