Meja Moses Urio issues a tearful public appeal for his wife Doreen to return after she vanished with their two children, marking a heartbreaking chapter in their troubled marriage.

In a heart-wrenching tableau of domestic despair, a 37-year-old father has been left destitute and broken after his wife vanished into the night, taking their two young children with her. The silence in Meja Moses Urio’s home is deafening, punctuated only by his desperate, tearful pleas for their return.
This is not just a story of a runaway spouse; it is a portrait of the fragile nature of modern families. Moses, a man who prides himself on communication, stands bewildered in the wreckage of his marriage. His wife, 26-year-old Doreen Christofa Issangya, left without a note, a call, or a trace, taking with her their children, Grayson and Ovelia. The sudden abandonment has left Moses navigating a labyrinth of grief and confusion, searching for answers in a void.
The tragedy is compounded by a haunting history. This is not the first time Doreen has fled. Moses recounts a previous disappearance after the birth of their first child, a fissure in their relationship that he thought had healed. "We talk out our disagreements," he insists, his voice cracking with emotion. "I don't know why she left."
His frantic calls to in-laws and friends have hit a wall of silence. The agony of a father separated from his children is palpable. He appeals not with anger, but with a shattering vulnerability: "Tafadhali rudi" (Please return). It is a cry that resonates with any parent who has faced the nightmare of separation.
Moses’s story is a microcosm of a quiet crisis playing out in households across the region—the breakdown of the family unit under unstated pressures. As he sits in his empty house, waiting for a phone that doesn't ring, he represents the often-overlooked emotional toll of domestic strife on men.
"Come back, let us raise our children," remains his mantra. It is a simple, human request in a complex, heartbreaking situation. Until then, Moses waits, a father without a family, hoping that his public plea will reach the woman who holds his world in her hands.
