Religious leaders are turning the heat on the government, accusing it of not doing enough to curb rising insecurity in the country. In a strongly worded joint statement, the leaders expressed disappointment with the government's inability to protect the lives and property of Kenyans. Their reaction followed the Sunday twin attack on AIC and catholic churches in Garissa where seventeen people were killed. Meanwhile, the government says thirty six people have been arrested so far in connection with the attacks. And as Alex Chamwada reports, the families of the bereaved are yet to come to terms with the loss of their loved ones.
