With the end of the dreadful westgate mall siege, we can only thank
God and those involved in countering the attack that it is finally over.
However there are numerous unanswered questions still lingering in our
heads. Like what really happened in there? Did any hostages survive? How
did those militia men really meet their death? What caused the three floors of the mall to cave in?
I think the government should clear the air of all the rumors going
around of what really happened in there and just be honest with us. This habit of cases and sagas that always go unanswered to the common mwananchi should not be condoned. Transparency and free flow of information is needed for an effective government. And
even if they don't want to tell us I think they owe it to the families
of those who were in there to tell them what really happened to their
loved ones. The truth might be hard to bare but it's necessary for full closure so that they can be able to move on with their lives.
We must however remember all those who lost their lives owing to the
attack, the KDF soldiers, the innocent litter kids and the adults and
give them their deserved honor. To those who've lost family and friends I can only encourage you and
tell you that their souls are somewhere peaceful and in a happy place.
They are probably smiling down at us. Whatever afflictions they went
through were only on their flesh but their spirit and souls remained
untouched.
