As the national mourning declared by President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya enter the third and final day, CEOAFRICA.com gathered that the country’s parliament have called on the security chiefs to appear before it’s defence committee for questioning.

The Westgate attack by terrorist claimed to be al-Shabab, claimed sixty-seven lives, while many are yet to be found. Forensic experts are still combing the complex, looking for bodies and clues.

A member of the parliament, Ndung'u Gethenji, who also doubled as Chairman of the Defence Committee said the mourning period has ended and the time for responsibility and accountability has come.

President Uhuru Kenyatta is attending the funeral of his nephew and his nephew's fiancee at a church service in the capital, Nairobi, where he has addressed the congregation.

Mbugua Mwangi and Rosemary Wahito were among those killed in the mall on Saturday.

They will later be buried in Ichaweri village in Gatundu about an hour's drive from Nairobi.
