Njue calls for dialogue at Garissa memorial


IN?THE wake of increased Islamist violence, Kenyan Cardinal John Njue on Monday called on Christians to launch a human and intellectual dialogue with other religions, writes Fredrick Nzwili.

Cardinal Njue spoke at a memorial service for the victims of the Garissa University College terror attack, carried out by the Somalia-based Islamist militant group, Al-Shabaab on 2 April, in which 148 people, mainly Christian students, were killed by four terrorists. “As Christians we … should engage in a dialogue designed to establish a world where peace prevails,” said Njue at the service organised by the Catholic and Anglican Churches.
