President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday summoned military generals to Mombasa as
Kenya Defence Forces intensified counter-attacks against Al-Shabaab who
raided a KDF camp in Somalia on...
Friday.
The Army, Airforce
and Navy commanders -- led by Chief of Kenya Defence Forces Samson
Mwathethe -- flew to the Coast for the meeting with the President at
State House, Mombasa.
After the
high-level security talks, the President addressed the nation in a
televised address where he again warned that those who attacked the KDF
camp at El Adde in the Gedo region, northwestern Somalia, would be
tracked down and punished.
"We are well aware
peace and security have their price," the President said in his address.
"Our job is to minimise the risk to our people. I'm proud to say that
our forces are ready to do their duty. Their bravery is undimmed and for
this, we, as a nation, are grateful to all of them."
