Survivors of the attack on the university in Garissa have begun to explain how the terrorists tortured them psychologically for hours. According to the Daily Nation, the attackers spoke Swahili and let the victims know that the weapons they were going to use to kill them had been paid for by Kenyan taxes.
Karimi, one of the survivors who remained in hiding for hours, has recounted how the terrorists offered to be released and those students who believed them and left the room were killed.
Martha, another of the survivors has explained that they camouflaged themselves among the bodies of their deceased companions and played dead for hours.
Mohamed Sheikh has been working as a security guard at Garissa hospital for more than three years.. Insists that Alshabaab is in control of the city, and that not recognizing it is an act of arrogance on the part of the government. "There are more people than you think celebrating the murder of the students", ensures.
The terrorist attack has been committed a day after the anniversary of the assassination of Shaikh Abubakar Shariff, a major religious leader who recruited young men to join Alshabaab in Mombasa.
Mohamed Saleh, The owner of a small business has asked me if the media will also come to interview them when the dead are Muslims, or those deaths will be justified by saying that they were members of Alshabaab and that they were a threat to Kenya.
On the other hand, a group of Muslim students have insisted that although Alshabaab has power in Garissa, most of the inhabitants feel part of Kenya and condemn the terrorist group. Fatuma Badr, one of them, says most of Garissa's youth have been born in Kenya, although his parents are of Somali origin, they speak Swahili and have studied in many cases outside of Garissa.
The departure of the buses that transport the survivors from Garissa to Nairobi has been delayed because more people who had been hiding since the day of the attack were found in the morning.
At 12: 45 Kenyan local time the buses left the military camp, where was the governor of Garissa who had come to see off the students.
