A family in Karama, Kongowea, is in distress as their son has gone missing, leaving them with more questions than answers.

Mombasa family says they have looked for Rodgers everywhere

Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, Rodgers Syengo's sister, Maria Monica, said that when their brother left home, he said he was going to meet his friend in Likoni.

"We went to Likoni and looked for him everywhere we thought we would find it him but sadly, we were not successful," said Monica.

"It was strange that he was last seen going to Likoni because we don't have any relatives in Likoni and we don't even know any of his friends who live there," she added.

When he went missing, Rodgers was wearing a red cap, black trousers, and a red t-shirt. He took the photo along the road and seemed happy and at ease, with one of his hands raised in a peace sign. The sister insists that he did not seem angry or to be suffering from stress.

"If you have seen him, happen to see him or meet anyone with information of his whereabouts, kindly contact his sister on 0724277934, his father 0714722180 or report to the nearest police station," said Monica.
