Terror Suspect Arrested at President Kenyatta’s Home

Less than two weeks after the horrifying terror attack on Garissa University, another terror suspect has been arrested at President Uhuru’s home in Gatundu South. Said Mire Siyad was arrested on Tuesday while on what is believed to have been a surveillance mission on President Uhuru’s home in Gatundu South.

The suspect was arraigned in court on Tuesday morning where the prosecutor, Daniel Karuri, requested the court for more time to allow police to complete investigations. It is believed that the suspect has associates in the region who are yet to be arrested.


The court ordered for the detention of Mr Said Mire and other terror related suspects for another 15 days to allow police conduct thorough investigations.

Stop Xenophobic Killings in South Africa

Cases of xenophobic attacks on foreigners in South Africa have left the whole world in shock, with reports indicating a possible repeat of the violence witnessed in 2008 where more than 62 foreigners died.

Despite continuous efforts by the South African government to assure foreigners their safety, incidents of violence against non-locals in major cities like Cape Town and Durban are being reported every day.

It is believed that these attacks are motivated by xenophobia with irate locals blaming their lack of employment in their own country on foreigners. So far more than five people, among them a 14-year old kid, have died and an unknown number of shops owned by foreigners looted.

According to several victims who managed to escape, angry youths are attacking foreigners at night and their main aim is to loot and kill. The attacks that have continued for the last three weeks have driven thousands of non-locals from their homes to passage camps in areas like Isipingo and Chartsworth.


Many blame the violence on comments made by King Goodwill Zwelithini that all foreigners should leave South Africa. He has since denied making such remarks. It is also not clear where the African Union stands.
