"content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence, Intelligence, and Foreign Relations regarding the disappearance of two Kenyans working in Saudi Arabia. On or around 12th August 2024, a Kenyan, Ms Teresia Wanya Musangi of ID No.27314772, who was living and working in Saudi Arabia as a house attendant, went missing. Efforts to trace her were unsuccessful until 19th November 2024 when her relatives were contacted by the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs informing them of her demise, which occurred on 13th August 2024. Her untimely demise has caused the family anguish, noting that she had been missing for three months and was in good health prior to her disappearance, according to the family. Additionally, Ms Diana Marita Boyo of ID No.38318071, who had been working in Saudi Arabia for two years, went missing on 2nd November 2024. The family has been distraught as her whereabouts remain unknown. It is against this background that I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence, Intelligence and Foreign Relations on the following: 1. Action being taken by the Ministry to investigate the death of Ms Teresia Wanya Musangi and the disappearance of Ms Diana Marita Boyo, who were working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 2. Efforts being made to repatriate the remains of Ms Teresia Wanya Musangi, including providing relief measures to the family. 3. Efforts being made to ensure that Ms Diana Marita Boyo is expeditiously traced and reunited with her family. 4. Measures being put in place to address the frequent disappearances of Kenyans in the diaspora. 5. A report on the long-term strategies being put in place to streamline recruitment of Kenyans abroad in order to enhance accountability by recruitment agencies and employers on the welfare of Kenyans recruited to overseas jobs."
