MOMBASA: Most Al-Shaabab recruits have been reluctant to take up the Government's offer for amnesty.

Suspected radicalised youth in Mombasa, Kwale and Kilifi counties, which have had the most terrorist attacks and assassinations, have not stepped forward as requested by Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaissery.
