Request for Support
48 days later, I am still unable to walk after my foot was burned with electricity by abductors sent by William Ruto. I remain dependent on crutches to move around.
Some days, my condition worsens, and I have to return to the hospital every week, sometimes e same week. At every medical appointment, I remain uncertain about what the doctors will tell me regarding my recovery.
The recovery journey has been challenging, and I continue to face difficulties as I work towards regaining my ability to walk.
I am still appealing for your support and assistance as I navigate this difficult recovery journey.
M-PESA Number: 0140598082

Thank you for your continued solidarity, kindness, and support throughout my recovery journey.

The judge noted that evidence suggested Abshir was in the custody of police before he vanished, meaning security agencies cannot evade accountability simply by claiming they are not holding him.
Justice Muteti ruled that law enforcement and security agencies have a case to answer in the advocate’s disappearance.

VOCAL Africa stands firmly in solidarity with Peter Komora, an environmental human rights defender from Kilifi County, who faces sentencing before the Kilifi Law Courts on Monday, 9 November 2026.
For over a decade, Peter has fearlessly championed community land rights, nd the protection of natural resources. His conviction on 29 October 2026, stemming from a 2020 incident where he assisted in apprehending suspected poachers alongside personnel linked to the Kenya Wildlife Service raises critical concerns over the criminalization and protection of frontline grassroots defenders.
We call upon civil society, human rights networks, community leaders and all advocates across Africa to RISE IN SOLIDARITY WITH PETER KOMORA. Amplifying his voice and closely monitoring these legal proceedings is vital to ensuring that those who put themselves on the line to defend public interest and environmental integrity are never left to stand alone.
An injury to one defender is an injury to the entire movement. Stand with Peter Komora. Stand for environmental justice. Stand for human rights.
