The year 2007 is a painful reminder of a lost daughter; one that would be a doctor on the frontlines of the Covid-19 pandemic, if she were here today. A family in Githunguri, Kiambu County has spent the last 13 years and four months in agony, after the disappearance of their then third year student at the Moi University School of Medicine in Eldoret. No one has ever withdrawn it, neither has it been returned,” Nelly Kaigua, Ruth’s mother said during the interview at their home in Kiambururu, Githunguri. Soon after her disappearance on the 5th day, Mr Ngugi Kaigua, Ruth’s father made the trip to Eldoret in search of her daughter. Her mother, teary and overwhelmed by emotions at this point, envisions her daughter as beautiful bold woman living her dream of a doctor.
