Efforts to ease religious tension commendable

Despite exhortations from the Government to citizens that they maintain unity and resist the temptation to see themselves as Christians or Muslims or Hindu or any other religion in the wake of the Garissa attack where 142 students were killed, there is still growing tension and suspicion between the two main religious groupings in the country.

Witness reports indicate that those who professed Islam were let free while their Christian peers were massacred.
