Gonyeti has been taken by masked and armed men from her house. They beat up her family and broke doors.

Like Kevin Hart or Trevor Noah, Gonyeti makes a living by making people laugh. Also, as most comedians she makes harmless and funny comments about prevailing social and political issues. Sometimes she pokes fun at politicians which is why some commentators thinks that’s the reason she was abducted last night.
Gonyeti is a comedian, an artist at @bustoptv. She was abducted by gunmen, beaten up, tortured & dumped. What has this country come to?! @KirstyCoventry, you are the Arts cabinet minister, we will not get ahead of you, let us wait & see what you will do! This is absolutely tragic pic.twitter.com/BfK44NsV9D

Fortunately (or unfortunately), she was found after some hours beaten and bruised.
Gonyeti has been found beaten up. Thank you for being with us in this difficult time.

Earlier this year Gonyeti was also arrested for a skit recorded in 2016 where she and other co-actors were wearing police uniforms.
