Wiper Patriotic Front leader Kalonzo Musyoka has said he has no doubts over the statement by the former Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju about his disappearance.

This comes amid mixed reactions from a section of leaders who claim that his disappearance was a well-calculated game by Tuju and his circles.

Speaking to the press at Karen, Nairobi, after Tuju’s resurface, on Monday, March 23, 2026, Kalonzo also said that the United Alternative Government will remain steadfast in fighting for abductions in Kenya.

“I have absolutely no reason to doubt Tuju’s word, and the opposition side will remain firm in fighting abductions in the country,” he said.

As critics continue with their blots, Tuju has revealed how he snubbed people who were trailing him, saying he sought refuge with a family in Kiambu County after being trailed by unknown individuals in an unmarked vehicle.

After days of speculation over his whereabouts, Tuju described a tense encounter in which he said he was being followed by individuals whose intentions he could not immediately determine.

He said the vehicle trailing him had no number plates, a detail that heightened his concern for his safety. The incident occurred while he was driving himself, accompanied by his aide.

“I got very worried. I was the one driving, as I often do, and by the time I reached Karen roundabout, they had really closed in. They were definitely making sure they were back-to-back with me,” he narrated.

Escaping the trailers?

Tuju said he relied on his familiarity with the area and made a sudden turn onto Nandi Road, a move he said helped him evade the suspected pursuers.

“They were not able to branch into Nandi Road. It meant they either had to turn and face oncoming traffic to follow me or go round. That is how I lost them,” he explained.

After shaking off the vehicle, Tuju said he continued driving through several roads within Karen to confirm he was no longer being followed. He later abandoned his vehicle and sought shelter with a family in Kiambu County.

He added that he had reported the incident to the police before leaving his car.

Fearing for his safety, he decided not to return home immediately. Instead, he crossed into the Kiambu area, where he was taken in by a family that offered him shelter without hesitation.

“I want to thank a family in Kiambu, at the boundary between here and Kiambu, who gave me shelter. They did not care about my tribe; they simply saw me as a human being,” Tuju said.
