Although President Kenyatta confirmed that all terrorists had been killed by the various security agents while condemning the act,the terrorist attack at the up-market mixed-use block on 14th Riverside Drive has claimed 14 lives and injured several others.
Among those lost shockingly are Hon Junet Mohamed’s cousin Feisal Ahmed and his friend Abdalla Mohamed Dahir who were having lunch at the restaurant.With heaviest of hearts, Somalia Stability Fund have announced the loss of their colleagues Abdalla Dahir and Feisal Ahmed, in yesterday’s tragic attack in Nairobi
Many friends and colleagues have since taken to twitter to reveal their devastation over news of the death of Abdalla.
The entire Heritage Institute team mourn for our dear friend & former colleague #AbdallaDahir (who along his colleague Faisal Ahmed) were among the many innocent killed in yesterday’s heinous terror attack at Dusit2 Hotel in #Nairobi; Abdalla was a decent human & a devout Muslim pic.twitter.com/dAbXmpmGnH

Dahir recently left Mogadishu to work in Nairobi, hoping for better security.
I’m shook. Abdalla Sheikh Mohamed Dahir @M_dahir was a victim at the #RiversideAttack and was just positively identified at Chiromo Funeral Home. He worked for Sustainability Fund which had offices at 14 Riverside Drive, Westlands. A brilliant mind. May Allah grant him Jannah. pic.twitter.com/4zZmjnwXnB

I’m SHATTERED.
I’m at Chiromo Mortuary and we have again positively identified the bodies of Abdalla and Feisal. Two good, upright young men. Both known to me. Both brilliant minds.
Terror knows no religion, no tribe, no creed, it knows NOTHING.
It is EVIL! Period.
