Wednesday January 16, 2019-Tracy Wanjiru is counting herself as the luckiest person currently living in Kenya.

This is after she survived both Westgate Mall and 14 Riverside Drive terror attacks. After the Westgate Mall terror attack that claimed several lives, the last thing Tracy Wanjiru expected was getting caught up in yet another horrific attack involving the Al-Shabaab militia group. Wanjiru, 28, who worked as a hairdresser, recalled hearing gunshots yesterday and when she peeped through the window, she heard a loud bang. She was so traumatized and what she could think at that time was how death had finally caught up with her. Shortly after the explosion, Wanjiru remembered seeing human body parts in the midst of fire flames flying in the air. “I jumped back to the salon, told my colleagues to be keen because we were under attack.” “They dismissed me at first but when they heard wails and screams, everyone went into hiding,” she narrated. Wanjiru further disclosed that she used her experiences at the Westgate attack to come up with a plan to save her. At the same time, Wanjiru revealed that the 14 Riverside drive attack was worse than the Westgate attack as she was closer to the terrorists than she was at Westgate.
