Passing Shot:

In that case, all non-Muslims in the Arab countries should have been killed by their host Muslim communities since they are infidels according to your warped reasoning! Get knowledge so that you become free.

It's astonishing the amount ill will you get from Africans towards Nigeria and Nigerians. Many innocent people have died in Kenya, so many horrible and sad experiences- one British architect and his pregnant wife; children, women.... this is all about Kenya and sympathizing and morning with her and Nigerians have rightly done that but some Africans come on here to insult Nigerians, Why

There were even some people who's post sounded suspiciously as if they wanted the same sort of terrorist atrocity to befall Nigeria in addition to what we already have...wow!! Although i should not be surprised because some of these weird Africans or maybe they are not Africans -who know- but they came on here chanting BOKO, BOKO,BOKO when Nigerians were murdered by Bokoharam.




Anyway, condolences to the dead over there in Kenya and i am so proud of the Nigerian people's normal human responses to these tragedies. Keep it up and do not let these vile people embitter your hearts.

eddiebruk: In as much as Nigeria should be prepared for such situations, they are likely to be aimed at the Northern Areas of the Country which as it is has more Muslims than Christians, there is a merely a 15% possibility of such attacks happening around the South South region, so the NORTHERN parts of Nigeria should be their prime target if at all they have such plans, and as such should be enough reason for the Nigeria Government to concentrate on beefing up the security forces around those AREAS with the South South ruled out as they can take care of themselves as it is regarding situations like this.

super_sun: I feel very sad each time Islam is coined a 'Religion of Violence'. When in fact it preaches peace. Sometimes I feel the violence is brought forward by poverty which paves way for 'Brain washing' and an eventual radicalism. May the souls of the departed rest in peace.

Michael_park: With all due respect to Muslims, why is that all the terrorist groups in the world are all from Islam? Can someone tell me if there is a place in the quaran that encourage killing of innocent people? I need an answer.

I would seek you to study these greatest acts of terrorism on humanity and find thier sources/causes. I'm sure they have no link with Islam. Mass killings in the second world war (Hiroshima, Nagasaki, etc, the Holocaust, the Vietnam war, open wikileak and study secret American deals on Iraq, Afghanistan among others.) Maybe you'll then realise that American is the greatest Terrorist and home of terrorism ever. Also, use google and search for any link in the quran( chapter/verse) that support terrorism. Pls DIY. Thanks

halfcurrent: One area that seems to impress me about the Kenyan forces is their response time to the attack. They really responded on time.

God bless the soldiers.They are also Fathers and Brothers who risked their lives to rescue .

rastamouse: I am disappointed in the Kenyan security forces. They rushed into the building without proper planning and that has resulted in the standoff which had led to the deaths of several people. Looking at the pictures that came out earlier, I will not be surprised if some of the terrorists including the 'White Widow' have already escaped with the civilians.

In situations like these, you do not just rush in when you do not have a plan. How the gunmen managed to keep the Kenyan soldiers at a distance for more than 48 hours in a shopping mall still amazes me. I do not believe that the gunmen have any hostages, they were too trigger happy and probably killed everyone that they encountered.

The only reason why I think this has delayed is because the security forces are not having any body armour which will eventually make them cautious. With body armour, I think this situation would have been over a long time.

YOU ARE SO SO WRONG, I JUST DONT KNOW HOW TO BEGIN EXPLAINING HOW IT UNFOLDED AND THE QUICK RESPONSE WE KENYANS WITNESSED FROM OUR MILITARY.

FYI ,Kenya has many undercover police reservists walking around in plainclothes, but wearing bullet proof vests.They patrol malls and streets mingling with ordinary citizens.Most of the guys you saw in plainclothes are reservists. Some just happened to be around and I want to believe that a soldier/cop is a soldier on duty 24/7 and not only when he is in uniform.

So here is what happened.

ORDINARY COPS ,IN BLUE RESPONDED FIRST TO THE ATTACK,BECAUSE THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. THE MILITARY STEPPED IN FROM THEIR BARRACKS WHICH ARE QUITE DISTANCE FROM WESTGATE, WHEN IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS NO ORDINARY ROBBERY.
THE HOSTAGES WERE TWEETING FROM WITHIN THE BUILDING UNTIL THEY WERE ORDERED TO STOP.


Those who went with guns ran to save lives.When a victim is drowning you don't look for swimming gear first if you can swim.Their mission was to get out as many hostages as they could even if it meant dying on the line of fire.That is what soldiers do and I give maximum respect to all soldiers for their sacrifice.

God bless the Soldiers.They are made not Born.

Sympathy to the people of kenya and those who lost a friend, family member or loved one. The Nigerian Police I know will not respond as well as the Kenyan police did, even if the highjack occured in their police HQ in Abuja. thus I commend the Kenyan Police for their bravery.

To those nationals of other countries insulting Nigeria...leave us to battle our beloved (or detested, as the case may be) Gej to give us our better life. And when d boko boys are wiped out and Nigeria becomes better and you guys start running to us begging for food and assistance....GHANA MUST GO pt 2 will be your lot.

And for the record HIV is most prevalent in East Africa...not Nigeria or our peace keeping soldiers. And people living with Hiv need our love and not stigma.

I weep with Kenya people in their sorrow

For a nation like kenya, which have prove my point that nigeria is not a sovereign state. To be hit by this event, it is hard to imagine. Know that I know many people from kenya, some friend. Friends I know many years living abroad who are from kenya.

Let me say a little about Kenya, when people say nigeria is a sovereign state. They did not know the truth because we never had internet to tell us the truth about our history as africa.

Lyttelton constitution of 1954 in which the independent act was base on was written not only for nigeria but also for kenya.

This is why you have to believe that nigeria is not a sovereign state, but a name mere to describe several protectorate in the british empire...

If you google. you will find kenya Lyttelton constitution 1954

So all my aboki friend who have been told lies for many years.. please google.


Now to the people of Kenya. I love you with all my heart and soul. And we weep together in this period. As an honourable member of the Mau mau . I weep with your nation this day.


Weep not, child,
Weep not, my darling,
With these kisses let me remove your tears;
The ravening clouds shall not long be victorious,
They shall not long possess the sky--shall devour the stars only in apparition:
Jupiter shall emerge--be patient--watch again another night--the Pleiades shall emerge,
They are immortal--all those stars, both silvery and golden, shall shine out again,
The great stars and the little ones shall shine out again--they endure;
The vast immortal suns, and the long-enduring pensive moons, shall again shine

Your right soldiers are born, cause the entire somali people along with ethiopians, and eritreans are soldiers. in the true meaning of the word.
