Nakuru County – The family of four-year-old Mary Njeri Ng’ang’a has been living with anguish for nearly four months after the young girl disappeared from Pipeline Estate.
Njeri reportedly went missing on Thursday, June 11, 2026, at about 6 pm while playing outside her family’s home.
Police Pursue Ransom Lead
Her disappearance immediately triggered a search involving her relatives, neighbours and members of the surrounding community, but the efforts have so far failed to establish her whereabouts.
At the time she disappeared, Mary was a PP1 pupil at Lakisha Academy.
Police investigations reportedly focused on a suspect who allegedly demanded a ransom in connection with Mary’s disappearance.
Detectives pursuing the available leads, however, police have been unable to apprehend the suspect, who reportedly escaped.
Family Still Holding Onto Hope
The development left the family without the answers they desperately needed as the search for Mary continued.
Nearly four months after the little girl vanished, her whereabouts remain unknown.
For Mary’s family, the passage of time has done little to ease the pain of her disappearance, with relatives continuing to hope that information will emerge to help bring her home.
Residents of Pipeline Estate and members of the public who may have seen Mary or have information that could assist investigators are being urged to come forward.
Anyone with credible information about Mary’s whereabouts is encouraged to report it to the nearest police station or contact the authorities handling the investigation.
