Garissa medical college closed over security concerns
2015-04-26
Garissa, Kenya -- The Garissa campus of the Kenya Medical Training College ( KMTC) has been closed for what was termed as security concerns. The closure comes weeks after the indefinite closure of Garissa University College in the same town following a terrorist attack that killed 148 people.
Pretty much an admission by the Kenyan government that it can't protect its citizens...
More than 300 students who were pursuing various diploma and certificate courses at the medical institution have been ordered to leave. The college’s administration had given students two days to fill up transfer forms and travel to other KMTC campuses around the country

Some students expressed their relief by the action saying they had been worried of their security since no visible improvements had been made since the university’s attack. Others, mostly from Northern Eastern, expressed their disappointment by the closure saying they have been forced to continue with their education in campuses far away from their locality.

By Saturday afternoon it was not yet clear the fate of two other institutions of higher learning within Garissa.
