Mombasa, Kenya; Authorities at the Coast are on high alert over reports that the Mombasa Republican Council (MRC) has regrouped and preparing to unleash terror to evoke memories of its attacks on State institutions two years ago.
The alert has been partly triggered by claims by Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph ole Lenku that the Opposition Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) has been involved in activities to revive the MRC, Mungiki and Al Shabaab to portray the government as weak and unable to deal with the wave of insecurity sweeping across the country.
