  2. <cite> @OdaySomali said:</cite> Galbeedi could you tell us more about the daily life (or your observations thereof), your interactions with ordinary folks/businesses/students, the status of women , quality of life, state of the infrastructure, where you see this "homeland" heading in the next few years etc. Thanks in advance. So far its just been a politics overdose. lol
  3. <cite> @Alpha Blondy said:</cite> these vicariously put together and emotive articles are written by folks who are frustrated to the point of tears. you almost feel sorry for them. lool
  4. ^^Mansoor is a fine establishment but its internet is rubbish!
  5. walahi somalia is one fuck of a country. we are in the 19th century.
  6. Chaos in Eastleigh has become chaos in South C, Mombasa, etc. Go where the Somalis are has become the mantra
  7. Silanyo has no fear of Al-Shabaab whatsoever huh. This surely does raise some red flags.
  8. If Somalia came together and operated as a nation with an interlinked economy, Puntland would not need to spend its efforts on farming. regional specialization.
  9. hayee lets say FGM is a problem, why are you complaining and preaching to white ppl miles and miles away? You want them to send their missionaries and civilize us barbaric FGM practicing Africans? At least take such such talks to where its being practiced. Talk to the "victim" not an irrelevant stakeholder if you perceive it to be such a grave issue. Or are you afraid? Or you don't know Somali? Or you want the Brits help? Or you just want to make public of this "problem" rather than fix it?
  10. And im personally here and know personally ppl who recived them at the airport
  11. idk i guess since its not news and more of a piece. but the guy is known as a satirical writer. though given the climate it can easily be read at face value
  12. ^^ Many of the deportees were ID holders; some had mandates, which allowed them to stay in the city, the other alien cards for the camps. Even reports have it some Somali-Kenyans were deported. there is a case of a mentally ill man from Wajir who was deported to Mogadishu Wednesday And what do you mean get their papers? Kenya has closed registration for asylum seekers years ago....
  13. Chaos in Eastleigh sure has taken a turn, with the first wave of Somalis deported on Wednesday; many possessed the proper legal papers, and most were women and children. Hassan Sheikh is done. This moment has surely tainted his career. He will not be able to revive. At least he will be able to keep his Nairobi home. Though, he will certainly have new neighbors. We shall patiently wait for new leadership in 2016 to come and let us down again once more.
  14. Ducaale is a confused man. One day he says he is leaving the government out of protest. The next he says I aint going anywhere. His Machakos comments are also not the most wise. Though, these folks don't need a consistent man or a wise man at the moment, they need someone to keep their spirits high. at least he is doing that.
  15. I spoke with the dear ambassador earlier today. I am not a fan of the way he his handling the situation. Though it appears he is just acting in accordance to the Government stance. Nevertheless Malistar if you don't realize the political and soon to be humanitarian damage caused by the way the Somali government has handled this I am sorry.
  16. Malistar r u ali America. Enough with the propaganda. You and "His Excellence" have no idea of the damage you cause with such spins
  17. <cite> @Gheelle.T said:</cite> SP, do you have any musical talent as your relative's? Gheelle, I can neither confirm this or deny it
  18. waawareey Cadale AKA Oba AKA Cambuulo ma nooshahay? kursi dowlada ma ka heshay? Whats goodddddddddd ninyahow?
  19. <cite> @Xaaji Xunjuf said:</cite> Poor Somali kenyans ilaahay bay leeyihin Ameen. Somalis have now taken their protest to social media with trying to get #Kasaraniconcentrationcamp to trend on Twitter.
  20. Lol I know someone in the video. This is nice. Thanks for sharing
  21. 500 arrested today in massive daytime swoop by 6100 police and soldiers
  22. <cite> @OdaySomali said:</cite> I don't see what your point is? Are you insinuating that because they are from Mogadishu and the South they cannot live or invest in Boosaaso, Hargeisa, Garowe, Boorama, Sheikh, Qardho, Burao, Berbera, Erigaabo etc.? My experience from having visited those places actually tells me otherwise. There are plenty of people from Mogadishu and the South in many of those cities already. For example, many of the storeowners in the city centres of Hargeisa and Burao are actually from the south (from Beledweyne to Mogadishu). You have to bear in mind that before the war many Mogadishans owned houses in Hargeisa and other cities in the north and they still own those houses and live in them (unlike Mogadishu in Hargeisa houses were reclaimed by their owners fairly quickly i.e. mid 90's). There are also thousands of IDP from the Southern regions in those cities. If you are suggesting that they cannot feel at home in northern Somali cities, I am surprised that you think they can or will feel at home in gaalo Kenyan cities and refugee camps? Like I said: there are many dynamics to this in terms of the Somali refugee and local politics of the places you mention... The fact that you compare IDPs to living in Nairobi demonstrates your level of understanding on this issue, which I don't have the energy to engage with at the moment.
