NAIROBI, April 5 (Xinhua) -- Kenyan authorities on Sunday revealed the identity of one of the terrorists who attacked Garisa University college on Thursday.

The spokesman in the Ministry of Interior Mwenda Njoka named Abdirahim Abdullahi, the son of a Mandera chief, as one of the four terrorist. He was also a law graduate from the University of Nairobi.

Abdullahi was positively identified by family and friends. He disappeared from Kenya in 2013 and his family and security officials suspected he had joined the Al-Shabaab.

Were any of the four attackers killed or captured?

The article gives zero information on this. Thanks.

No big deal here.
Just another Obama/Muslim bongo party in Kenya.

Obama is scheduled to visit Kenya. Bet he will call it off.

Hillary will just "duck" any visit to any coutry in the Middle East.

I wondered the same thing. Info here....

“”Officials said that by the time Kenyan commandos cornered and killed the attackers on an upper floor, 147 people lay dead.””

"Despite new security laws, significant Western help and a heightened state of vigilance that has already put police officers on almost every major street corner in the capital, Nairobi, Kenya remains squarely in the cross hairs of the Shabab, the Somali terrortist group that immediately claimed responsibility for the attack on Thursday."

Traitorobama's goal is that someday the NY Times will repeat that statement but with "Washington, D.C." substituted for "Nairobi, Kenya."
