Warnings: murder, rape, abduction, kidnapping, abuse mention
LISTEN UP!
More and more Kenya-Somali children are being abducted, abused or murdered due to unpaid ransom. Their families are living in fear as they are being demanded money they can't pay for their children back.
Videos have been found online of people showing the victims have been tortured and abused on death's door.
The latest is of Hamsa Abdulwahab, 23, who was kidnapped in Nairobi. A video was released showing her with serious injuries and her asking her family to give kidnappers what they want.
Family member Omar Iso said his cousin was “kidnapped while she had left her business premises. The kidnappers have called us constantly asking for ransom and sharing videos of our tortured relative. We need help.”
We need to educate ourselves and support these families. We need to donate towards charities in Somalia and push countries to let Somalia use funds from the World Bank to better themselves.
