Atheists are asking a very hard question and we need to answer them ASAP… They are asking why we are grateful and thanking God for the retrieval of THE dead bodies yet the same God "neglected" the deceased at their hour of need. #RecoveryInTheDeep

So sad that just a simple car has taken 2 weeks to retrieve, not forgetting that Kenya navy is allocated billions each financial year. What if Alshabab came through Indian ocean!? Kuuliza tu jamani, ..@khalidjoho

If these navy idiots could have used the same effort in saving the two we would be celebrating them but their work is only to recover dead bodies instead of rescuing the living #LikoniFerry
