When five-year-old Margaret Karimi watched her mother leave in 2011, she was told they would one day reunite. Her mother, Catherine Nyawira, was travelling to Saudi Arabia in search of greener pastures, determined to build a better life for her children.

For years, Karimi and her sister clung to that promise. The occasional phone calls, money sent home and stories shared across borders kept hope alive. But this August, that dream was crushed. Nyawira, who had spent 15 years working in Saudi Arabia, died unexpectedly. To the family’s devastation, she was buried in the Gulf before her body could be repatriated.

Now, her family in Runyenjes, Karuruma village, Embu County, is pleading with the Kenyan and Saudi authorities to intervene, insisting they were denied the dignity of laying their loved one to rest.

“She passed away on August 1. We were told that to repatriate the body, we needed to raise Sh450,000 and given 25 days to do so,” said her father, Damiano Nyaga.

The family began fundraising in earnest, hopeful that once the amount was secured, they would receive Nyawira’s body at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. But on August 16, barely two weeks later, they received a devastating call: Nyawira had already been buried in Saudi Arabia. “This was done without our consent. Why, when the 25 days had not lapsed? Nyawira had two children waiting for a mother they had not seen in 15 years. We are pleading with the government to help us. We want to bury our daughter at home,” Nyaga said.

Nyawira’s mother, Margaret Nyaga, said the pain was made worse by being denied a final farewell.

The family had travelled to Nairobi on Thursday in anticipation of receiving the body. Back at home in Embu, mourners had gathered, waiting to accord Nyawira her final rites.

“How will I even accept that my daughter is dead when I cannot see her remains. It is painful and heartbreaking. Please bring my child to me. That is the only way I can find peace, and try to forget about all this,” she said.

Nyawira’s sister, Josephine Wanjeru, recounted their constant communication over the years.

The Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs has confirmed that 64 Kenyans rescued from scam compounds in Myanmar will soon return home after crossing into Thailand.
In a communiqué dated March 2, the Ministry announced that the Kenyans are currently at the Thai-Myanmar border ready to cross over.

They are being stalled at the border because Thailand has not reopened the border crossing since February 12, 2025, when the first wave of 260 foreigners, including 24 Kenyans were handed over to the Royal Thai Army by the Democratic Karen Buddhist Army (DKBA).

"The Kenyan Ambassador in Thailand has remained in touch, on a daily basis, with the Kenyans to apprise them on efforts by the government to bring them home safely," read the statement in part.

"The Government of Kenya is in consultation with the Thai Government to have the border crossing re-opened on humanitarian grounds to allow the rescued nationals entry into Thai territory and repatriation to Kenya."

The 64 Kenyans are in a group of over 7,000 other foreigners rescued by two armed groups- the DKBA and the Border Guard Force (BGF)- comprising over 30 nationalities.

They are among hundreds of other foreigners trafficked to Myanmar late last year and used forcefully to commit various online crimes including scamming, fraud, identify theft, phishing, romance scams, and cryptocurrency scams.

"The situation in the makeshift military camps in Karen State where the rescued nationals are being held remains dire with lack of access to medical facilities, clean water, electricity and sanitation," the statement added.

The Ministry is also pursuing alternative routes to bring the Kenyans home.

46 Kenyans were rescued from Myanmar scam compounds on February 19, barely a week after 24 others were freed.

Earlier, four Kenyans escaped to Thailand on February 8, 2025, and were rescued by Thai civilians before being handed over to security authorities at the border area.

The Ministry cautioned Kenyans against traveling abroad before verifying the legitimacy of jobs advertised online by checking with the State Department for Diaspora Affairs.

“The Government reminds Kenyans to exclusively use private recruitment agencies that are registered and licensed by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection," the Ministry noted.

A list of these approved agencies can be accessed on the website www.neaims.so.ke

Kenya is also making similar rescuing efforts for its nationals facing similar labour situations witnessed in Libya, South Sudan, Sudan, Lebanon, Myanmar, Israel and other parts of the world in line with its fundamental duty to protect the rights and welfare of Kenyans wherever they are.

OMTATAH TO BAR POLITICIANS FROM ACCESSING PUBLIC MONEY IF ELECTED PRESIDENT

Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah has promised to bar politicians from accessing public funds should he succeed President William Ruto in the 2027 General Election.

The senator, who expressed his presidential ambitions in the upcoming elections, explained that his administration would strictly be based on the budget to avoid heavy borrowing from domestic and global financial institutions.

He castigated political leaders for making 'big' promises when touring the country without adhering to the budget estimates.

"A president should not walk into a project and dictate Ksh200 million to be poured here, is it in the budget? The budget must be restored as the primary tool of governance in the country," he told Spice FM.

To effect this, Senator Omtatah noted that the Treasury should be established as an independent institution and be run by experts and not politicians.

He said that the Minister for Finance would only be tasked to make policies and not deal with public funds

"Treasury has to be established as an independent institution. It needs to be established like the Central Bank of Kenya, run by experts and politicians have no access to public money," Omtatah noted.

"We should separate the Treasury from the Minister of Finance. The treasurer boss should be autonomous."

While expressing his interest to vie in 2027, Omtatah formed a 10-member committee to assess his candidacy. The Committee, according to the senator, would be required to provide a report within 18 months.

"The committee is mainly made up of volunteers. I've got the capacity to do(fund their activities) from my small businesses here and there. They have been given 18 months but they can report earlier," he remarked.

During the interview, he outlined key agendas in his presidential campaign which include enforcing the rule of law, enhancing fiscal discipline, industrialization and food security, health and education.

He also noted that those involved in graft would be required to surrender the funds should his presidential ambitions come to reality.

Omtatah, however, rejected the term 'messiah' and noted that his bid is driven by the desire to see Kenyans receive quality services.

"My desire is to be a good citizen and a good citizen requires good service. My drive is to see that this country provides service that the citizens of Kenya deserve," he said.

𝑲𝒆𝒏𝒚𝒂 𝒂𝒊𝒎𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒅 300,000 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝑸𝒂𝒕𝒂𝒓 - 𝑪𝑺 𝑴𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒂

The Kenya Kwanza administration is looking to increase the number of Kenyans working in Qatar to 300,000, from the current 67,000.
This is according to Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection, Alfred Mutua, who spoke on Sunday while meeting Qatar Labour Minister Dr. Ali Saeed Samikh Al-Marri

Mutua said Kenya and Qatar are looking to amend the bilateral agreement signed in 2012 between the two countries, to allow for more Kenyans to travel to the Arab country for work.

Together with his counterpart, Mutua said among the plans in place is to set up a visa centre in Kenya to avoid delays for those looking for job opportunities in Qatar.

"Our aim is to have labourers from all areas including teachers, nurses, artisans, engineers, etc," Mutua said.

Qatar is looking for skilled labour in areas such as ICT, transport and education.

On his part, Ali Saeed said his country is keen on getting highly skilled labour from Kenya.

"We discussed how to strengthen our relationship. We'll be signing a new memorandum to continue strengthening these relationships and ensuring more Kenyans get opportunities to work in our country," he said.

President William Ruto has said part of his plans is to open job opportunities for Kenyans to travel out of the country.

Recently, Ruto was in Germany where he signed a labour mobility agreement that will see skilled Kenyans work in Germany.

Ruto has also sought employment opportunities for Kenyans in Saudi Arabia and other countries.
