NAIROBI: Yesterday, I was at Moi University, in Eldoret, to keep a promise that was made by France in April this year; the promise to support students who were wounded in Garissa. At the time, the people of France were shocked by this heinous attack and spontaneously mobilized to show solidarity with the people of Kenya.
France has been feeling pain caused by the dreadful and unjust death of 129 people, assassinated by cowardly terrorists last week in a brutal action of the same nature as the ones you experienced in Garissa and in Westgate. The terrorists who struck Paris and Garissa are not foreigners. In Garissa as in Paris, they are fellow compatriots and we have to cope with this issue.
