Thursday, September 12, 2024. Mohammed Abduba Dida’s family is urging President William Ruto’s government to help in securing his release from a U.S. prison.
He is serving a 7-year sentence. Dida was convicted in 2021 in Illinois for stalking and threatening his estranged American wife. This led to his imprisonment for violating a restraining order obtained by his wife.
Dida’s family explained that he unintentionally breached the restraining order. He visited a prayer center near his estranged wife’s home, not realizing it was against U.S. laws.
They are seeking ways to visit him, find a new lawyer, and support his case. The family emphasized that Ruto’s intervention is crucial for Dida’s freedom. They are planning a prison visit to support him.
The former presidential aspirant, turning 50 in November, is now detained at the Big Muddy Correctional Centre in Illinois.
Dida’s family believes that his visit to a mosque near his wife’s residence caused him to inadvertently violate the restraining order. His family thinks his visit to a mosque caused him to violate the restraining order. She also frequented that mosque. They are hopeful that with Ruto’s administration’s involvement, Dida can secure his release and regain his freedom.
The family’s plea for assistance from Ruto’s government underscores their determination to support Dida during his incarceration in the U.S.
They are actively working towards finding legal representation, visiting Dida in prison, and seeking ways to guarantee his release. The family’s efforts highlight the importance of external support in navigating Dida’s legal challenges and securing his freedom.
