I am ambivalent about this ....on one hand I feel as if the authorities are taking us up the garden path, giving assurances where none exist, there were slips in strategy, command and the situation is dire; on the other hand may be this is propaganda to confuse Shabaab, no need to give them ammunition to fan media fires ....in addition I find myself hoping that some were captured alive and sharp extrajudicial interrogation and justice can be dropped on their heads without the misguided human rights busybodies poking their noses. We shall never know.
The post-mortem of this needs to be investigated very seriously indeed. The people who were bribed and released this Samantha Lewthwaite should be thrown in prison.

Sure?
Ama umelewa!

@Magigi, lets not use the work "leaders" wrongly. We have seen an excellent display of leadership by first repsonders, security forces, Kenya Red Cross, patriotic kenyans who have provided meals and water to the rescue team at Westgate, blood donors etc. Those are the real leaders.

Was wondering how comes all along I have not heard sonko but am made to understand that during this time he turned out to be a commando and saved a lot of lives from westgate
