Shahidi Aeleza Kisa cha Al Shabaab Kuuwa Wasichana Wengi Katika Shambulio la Kigaidi Chuo cha Garissa Kenya

A survivor of the deadly terror attack in Garissa University has told the media how the Al Shabaab tricked female students to draw them out in the open and kill them like insects.

Narrating his story, Francis Gicobi, a second year Bachelor of Education student, said many female students fell for Al Shabaab’s lies and that’s why they were killed in large numbers compared to male students.

Gicobi noted that when Al Shabaab stormed the women’s hostel, they tricked them to comply with their orders to come out because they would not be killed since Islam does not permit them to kill women.

Many females students fell for this lie and came out and the Al Shabaab sprayed them with bullets indiscriminately killing them like insects

The Al-Shabaab shouted 

“Kama hamtaki kufa, tokeni hapa nje nyote kwani kulingana na dini yetu, hatuui wasichana na kwa hivyo mtoke taratibu kwa gorofa hadi hapa chini, au mpigie baba zenu simu waje wakuokoe. (If you don’t want to die, come outside. According to our religion, we do not kill girls. Walk down the stairs to the ground level, or alternatively call your fathers to come and save you),” narrated Gicobi.

“Female students walked to the ground floor of the storied building in droves only for the attackers to indiscriminately spray them with bullets,” he added.

However, he thanked God for keeping him alive to tell Kenyans what he witnessed on that fateful day.

“I thank God for saving me to be able to tell Kenyans what I witnessed as my innocent colleagues were riddled with bullets like animals,’’ he said.
