daajis.com:- Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta has replaced his interior minister and police chief following a massacre by Islamist group al-Shabab.
The president asked Kenyans to unite, and said: “We will not flinch in war against terrorists.”
Kenya’s police chief David Kimayo stood down, while Interior Minister Ole Lenku was dismissed.
Al-Shabab earlier killed 36 quarry workers in the Mandera region, near the Somali border.
The group attacked the workers around midnight on Monday as they slept in tents at the quarry in Kormey, 15km (nine miles) from the north-eastern town of Mandera.
The non-Muslim workers were shot dead after being separated from the Muslims.
“This is a war against Kenya and Kenyans,” Mr Kenyatta said on national TV on Monday. “It is a war that every one of us must fight.”
A driver who visited the scene of the attack, Ali Sheikh Yusuf, told the BBC most of the victims appeared to have been lined up, and shot in the head, at close range.
He said four were beheaded inside their tents, while three appeared to have escaped to Mandera town.
