The family of Nicholas Oyoo, a Kenyan human rights activist, is appealing to the Ugandan government to release him and his colleague Bob Njagi, who were allegedly abducted in Uganda last week.

Oyoo and Njagi, both members of the Free Kenya Movement, were reportedly seized by armed men driving a van on October 1 while refueling their car at a Stabex petrol station in Kireka, Kampala. Their vehicle bore a Kenyan number plate.
