God saved me from terror – Garissa student

Garissa University College

A girl who claims to have dreamt about the fateful attack on Garissa University College before it happened believes it was God who saved her from death.

Speaking to Campus Vibe, Irene Muthama who will be returning to school from Machakos this week, said she escaped the jaws of death through a dream, which still bothers her.

“I left school just a day after my dream. Nobody sent me home, I was just scared and left,” said Muthama.

Narrating the dream to Campus vibe, Muthama said everyone she met in the dream died save for two. She claims she dreamt that she was leaving the nearby Sokongombe market with one of her friends when they met someone screaming that attackers had invaded their school.

“I started running towards Garissa TTC and further downhill,” said Muthama.

The Second year student told Campus Vibe that in her dream, she met six people at different intervals who kept disappearing. All six died in the attack.

“At a phone booth in my dream, I saw a river of blood as I tried calling home, that is when I woke up,” said Muthama.

She said that twice before she had dreams which came true in the Institution. According to her, she had once dreamt of a strike which happened when students protested against insecurity in the institution. She told Campus Vibe that in her panic, she told her pastor and a few CU members who according to her were just as scared as she was about the attack.

Her roommate, she said, was also planning to leave the institution on the same day she left.

“It is God who saved me from death, and it still bothers my mind to date, I have spoken to the Chaplain at Moi University about it,” said the lady.

Moi University Chaplain told The Nairobian that: “We have been conducting both individual and group therapy since students arrived. Many of them have resumed studies and are ready to move on.”
