“I Am NOT Afraid As You Can DIE Anywhere” : Nakumatt Manager Says As WESTGATE MALL Re-Opens

The fear of going back to West gate mall might have gripped the former employees and workers who were designated to work at the mall but for Nakumatt Branch Manager, he says he is not afraid. The Mall is set to open on Saturday 18th July after the terror attack and Nakumatt manager is one of the many who have come out boldly to state that he is ready to start working when the mall re-opens.

It is very vital to encourage many Kenyans to turn up in numbers to visit the mall when its re-opened so as to show solidarity for those who lost their loved ones and so that our economy can grow. If fear is our shield then no business would be carried out by an entrepreneur who lives in Mandera or a person who has lost loved ones from the vice of terrorism.

“I am not afraid. You can die anywhere, on your way home, on the streets. If you were to die from a terror attack it may find you anywhere even in social places,” he told Daily Nation.

He recalled that a diplomatic police officer who was among the first ones to respond was told to throw his pistol before being shot just a few feet away from the counter where Mr Muturi and other staff were standing.

He said that most of the people who died were those that thought the attackers were ordinary robbers and rushed to look for hiding places instead of searching for exits.

“When they came, a number of people who were outside the supermarket rushed in instead of looking for exit points. For over an hour we tried to get out as many as we could,” he recalled.
