142 students and another 6 persons have been brutally
gunned down at Garissa University, Kenya on 2nd April. And as news of this
tragedy keeps coming I am appalled and grieved. So many young lives have been
mercilessly cut short, their dreams and that of their families have been
destroyed, spreading sorrow among the entire civilized world.
I do not understand why innocent and defenseless
students are being targeted to settle scores or terrorize people. It happened just few months back in Peshawar
and now here in Kenya. We all may forget these tragedies but not the families and
friends of the victims. It will be a lifelong sorrow for them.
As a helpless individual, I can only offer my
sincere sympathies to the families of the victims and pray that wisdom and kindness
should prevail among perpetrators of such crimes against humanity and never
again should such tragedies occur.
