On 2 April 2015,gunmen
stormed the Garissa University in Garissa, killing 147 comrades and injuring 79 or more. The militant group and Al-Qaeda offshoot, Al-Shabaab, which the gunmen claimed to be from, took responsibility
for the attack. The gunmen took over 700 comrades hostage, freeing Muslims and
killing those who identified as Christians. The siege ended the same day, when
all four of the attackers were killed. Five men were later arrested in
connection with the attack, and a bounty was placed for the arrest of a
suspected organizer.
In the aftermath of the
attack, a heartbreaking last text to a loved one ,As the dormitory was
besieged by the Al-Shabaab militants, comrade Jane Akinyi sent a message from
inside Garissa University College, to her boyfriend with the poignant message
"in case we don't see each other again, just know I love you".
Very Sad indeed.
Being the month of love ,I think it would not be wrong if we celebrate
Her as our Valentines by Sharing her short message which she left to his 'Beb'
thus showing the meaning of true love.
I
know if she would still be alive maybe she would celebrate this day in style.
This Lady Died with Love
#RIPAkinyi
