The 28-year-old is a candidate for Kanyenya-ini ward in
Kangema constituency.
Kahari went missing on July 24, just a day after informing
officers at Kangema police station of the unknown people.
But his family alerted police a week later, said Murang’a
police boss Naomi Ichami.
Ichami said they have launched a massive search for the
politician.
Kahari’s mother Elizabeth Muthoni broke down, saying her
last born son left home for his political trail, never to be seen again.
His cousin Githuka Kahari said politics is to blame for the
disappearance.
Githuka demanded that MCA candidates give a clear information
on the matter.
Relative Martha Mwangi said she spoke to Kahari on Monday
morning and that he gave her his campaign itinerary for the day.
She said she has not seen him since then.
Cases of politicians going missing increased when
preparations for the August 8 election started picking up.
Among those who were reported missing were Kabete MP
aspirant Charles Chege, Juja MCA aspirant Margaret Wanjiru and Rangwe MP
aspirant Ezra Odhiambo.

On Monday, IEBC ICT manager Chris Msando who had gone
missing on Friday was found murdered in Kikuyu, Kiambu county, on Saturday.
A post mortem has not yet been carried out and the body was
