President Uhuru Kenyatta flew back into the country Tuesday evening from an official visit to Abu Dhabi.
However,
Kenyans expressed their anger over his trip following the killings of
28 people by Al-Shabaab in Mandera in their comments on pictures of the
trip posted on President Kenyatta's official Facebook page.
Julius
Kagiri Kimani's post read in part: “All these pictures you keep posting
on FB smacks of PR at best and deception at worst. With respect Mr
President, Al-Shabaab/Terrorist groups have been causing havoc in Kenya
for a long while now. We want to see results/we want to see security."
Maggie Nyash said, “We want two national id cards, i.e., Margaret Nyambura and Margaret Khadija Muhammad. Thanks”
Here are some other comments:
Charles
Ade Ngare: “President Uhuru please check on the security of the country
or we will all be in national mourning in weeks to come.”
