On security, the buck stops with you Mr President

Undoubtedly, insecurity has become President Uhuru Kenyatta’s greatest challenge. But his approach to the security crisis facing him has left friends and foes alike, dumfounded.

After the Lamu terrorist attack, a visibly angry President told off his critics and blamed local politicians for the gruesome massacre. This week, he similarly went on air to respond on the Mandera attack in a enraged mode and told off Kenyans. He threw caution to the wind as the Head of State, watched by women and children rattled by the shock of terrorist slaughter.
