The courage, the humility... simply touching. Viva Abdul! You, my countryman, are a hero.

There may be other people deserving of medals for their bravery during this incident, but if this one man does not get it, I say let it not be given to anybody else.

Other than Brave and Courageous, he is an Intelligent boy. Truly Brilliant. I like the way he answered Questions.

Just wondering, what does he do for a living for those who know him?

he drove all the way from Yaya and accessed the mall....the dude is brave

I think I acknowledged that in post #3. But every profound experience always has a face... a "poster child". It was Mandela for apartheid and Luther for the Civil Rights Movement. Abdul may very well emerge as the face of the heroism at Westgate. And I say he's a damn good candidate.
