  • Teenage girls go missing from their homes in Nairobi
  • Relatives claim they were called from an American number

Seven teenagers went missing on Saturday, November 14, 2020, after they were lured by a job advert looking for movie casting roles.

The call was for an opportunity to audition for an undisclosed role made from this number +176896663236.

One of the girls' relatives made a video asking Kenyans for help to find the missing teens who were lured out of their homes.

Fiona Otieno on Friday morning appealed for assistance from the public to help trace her cousin, Sharon Ndunge Muoka who is one of the seven girls that went missing.


The seven teenagers were last seen in Komarock, Nairobi, with the last person in contact with the girls being a caucasian male using an American number.

Relatives said that when the number was tracked on Thursday, November 19 authorities reported that the owner was travelling towards Mombasa.

In September, US Trafficking in Persons Report 2020, placed Kenya on the list of countries with the worst human trafficking trends in the world.

As a country of origin, Kenyans are still trafficked to Saudi Arabia, Germany, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, and India.
