Four years after the Garissa University Attack: remembering attack that claimed 148 lives

2nd April, 2019

Today marks fours years since the Garissa university terror attack in 2nd April 2015.

The attack left 148 people dead and several maimed.

Gun-wielding attackers stormed the campus precincts and shot at students indiscriminately killing many, holding some hostage.

Terror group Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility of the attack.

After the dreaded attack, the institution, a satellite campus of Moi University, was shut down indefinitely. It was later reopened in January 2016 with a small number going back while others being transferred to Moi University, Main Campus.

Since then many universities have put all round safety security measures to curb such incidents.
