I have been following this story of Nduta closely and according to Vietnam media outlets, Nduta will take her last supper at 7:30 and after which she will be hanged at 8:30 tomorrow in Vietnam, this will be on Monday EAT.
Margaret Nduta is a 37-year-old Kenyan national, is scheduled for execution in Vietnam on March 16, 2025, following her conviction for drug trafficking. She was apprehended in July 2023 at Ho Chi Minh Cityβs TΓ’n SΖ‘n NhαΊ₯t International Airport with over two kilograms of cocaine concealed in her luggage. οΏΌ
Nduta maintains that she was deceived by individuals promising employment in Saudi Arabia, only to be rerouted to Vietnam under false pretenses. She claims to have been unaware of the illicit contents in the suitcase she was carrying. οΏΌ
Her family is urgently appealing to the Kenyan government for intervention to prevent her execution. They have called upon the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to engage diplomatically with Vietnamese authorities to seek clemency or a reduction of her sentence. οΏΌ
Vietnam enforces stringent anti-drug trafficking laws, often imposing severe penalties, including the death sentence. While the Kenyan government has a mandate to protect its citizens abroad, diplomatic interventions in such cases are complex and subject to the legal frameworks and sovereignty of the host nation.
As of now, there has been no official statement from the Kenyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding Ndutaβs case. The situation remains critical, with limited time for potential diplomatic efforts to alter the course of events.
I know she did something bad and perhaps she was deceived by those agents without her knowledge but under the ministry Ministry of Foreign Affairs Kenya which is lead by CS Hon Musalia W Mudavadi can make a call to Vietnam authorities and stop the execution of our Kenyan citizen thatβs IFF the government of Kenya is in good terms with Vietnam authority.
May she have another life to thank the Almighty God.
