‘Just Bring His Body If He’s Dead!’ – Brian Odhiambo’s Mother Pleads With The Gov’t
A distressed mother has made a heartfelt plea to the government for assistance in finding her son, Brian Odhiambo.
The 31-year-old has been missing for six days after being abducted by Kenya Wildlife Services (KWS) officials.
On Friday, January 24, Elizabeth Auma emphasized her anguish and concern, imploring the government to intervene and take immediate steps to return her son home.
“I have not eaten since my son went missing, I beg the KWS officers, please give me back my son, even if he is dead, bring me the body, let me see my son, I beg you,” she pleaded with the KWS officers.

Auma explained that Odhiambo, the family’s first kid, is the breadwinner, and his absence has had a significant impact.
“I cannot sleep at night, I stay awake hoping that maybe even if they have broken his legs he will crawl and knock on the door asking for us to open it for him,” Auma painfully narrated.
Odhiambo’s mother reports that he went missing on Saturday, January 18, and has yet to be discovered.
The mother disclosed that they had not received any reports regarding Brian’s arrest or his whereabouts.
His wife, Ivy Aoko, also campaigned for his release, stating that they have two children who rely on him.
In the heart of Nakuru, Brian Odhiambo vanished into the shadows, seized by KWS officers. Wounded and vulnerable, he was taken from his loved ones, who now wander in despair, their cries echoing through the night, Hope flickers dimly.
