The bodies of two men who went missing in separate incidents over the New Year period have been discovered in Nairobi and Kiambu counties, sparking investigations into the circumstances surrounding their deaths.

The first body was that of 26-year-old Ian Singoe, who was reported missing after a night out with friends at a Kasarani entertainment spot on New Year's Eve. Singoe, who had traveled from Bomet to Nairobi on December 29, 2024, to finalize some job-related paperwork, was last seen on December 31, 2024. According to his mother, Pauline Korir, he did not return to the household where he had been staying during his visit.

Relatives who checked Singoe's phone noted that it remained active until around 1 a.m. on January 1, 2025, before it went silent. His body was later discovered in Kasarani Mwiki, with investigations into his death now underway.

In another tragic incident, residents of Kawaida area near Banana, Kiambu County, discovered the body of 27-year-old John Muchiri Muthoni on Saturday, January 4, 2025. Muthoni, who had been missing since the afternoon of January 3, 2025, was last seen around 3 p.m. that day.

According to Muthoni's girlfriend, she received a phone call early Saturday morning directing her to the location of his body. Upon her arrival, she found his lifeless body stripped naked and bearing visible injury marks. The discovery has raised many questions, and authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of death.

Muthoni’s body has been transported to Kihara Sub-County Hospital Mortuary, where a postmortem is scheduled for Monday, January 6, 2025. Both deaths have left families and communities in shock, as they await further details from law enforcement.
