Insecurity is still a major problem affecting Kenyans. We have lost many KDF officers and civilians in the last five years and this begs the question, who is going to save us from terrorists?

Juliana Mutula, a wife of one of the 61 KDF officers who died in the El Adde attack in Somalia after being ambushed by Al-Shabaab terrorists has shared an emotional story of how life has changed after losing her loved husband.

Here's Juliana's post that has left Kenyans sobbing

"The only thing I'll remember about this Uhuru's regime is forcefully denying my daughter Cindy the right to ever know her father. Yes..He was forced to die in a foreign land.

You see that afternoon of 15th Jan 2016, I received a call from him informing me of the attack... It was at midday and was having my early lunch. I hadn't heard any info about it. He was the first person to inform me... I started making calls to get any info from those within the barracks but was told the attack happened in the morning and if my husband was still communicating I should be happy he had survived... That cooled me down just a little...yeah because I thought if the attack was launched at 3 in the morning.

Then it only means a rescue team has already been deployed in Ellade..but that was not the case.. the continued communication between me and him continued to drown my hope...I've never heard him talk with such hopelessness.

It was as if he was facing death..it was now 5:30 pm and nothing had been done..nearly 3/4 of them had been killed and the remaining few were trying so hard to 'survive' he had lost hope in the same system he was working for.... All this while I kept alert waiting for the president's speech..but our darling youthful president couldn't just stop his coastal tour and campaigns just because 'some' soldiers were dying.

As the sun set..it went with the little hope I had held onto...I didn't imagine him being in a foreign land at night without any weapon....some minutes before 7 pm he made the last call I thought he would tell me that the rescue team is already there no... He only wanted to bid goodbye I could hear him struggling to talk and breathe at the same time....from the background I could hear people talking in the Somali language... I was so tensed that I decided to end that call...my heart sank. Somehow I knew I had lost him..but I still didn't want to believe.... From there, his phone went off."
