MOGADISHU (Caasimada Online) – Somali MP Abdirizak Mohamed has strongly protested against country’s plan to pay a US lobbying firm $400,000 through the end of this year. Hon. Mohamed called paying Sonoran Policy Group (SPG) amounts to corruption. SPG based in Arizona signed a lobbying contract with the FGS to help Somalia to gain renewed funding for the country’s army and lifting ban on Somalis’ travel to America imposed by US president Donald Trump. “This is corruption at its ugliest form by our government. We can not afford to pay such egregious amount to US lobbying firm, while our government relies on foreign aid to sustain itself and feed its people. This is outrageous and unacceptable” he said. Hon. Mohamed added “ mismanaging aid and donor support constitutes corruption, and affects economic development as well as aid effectiveness”. He stressed there has been a growing consensus that these activities threatens development and may reverse hard gained progress. He called for increased efforts from International partners to help fight corruption, and other illicit activities that derail economic development and affect accountability and public transparancy. AGREEMENT The US lobbying firm agreement was signed jointly by Somalia’s UN envoy Abukar Osman and Christian Bourge, executive director of the SPG in earlier this month. The SPG firm commits to arrange talks with White House officials and lawmakers aimed at ending a partial of US suspension of funding for the Somali National Army forces. The firm will also facilitate a future visit to the US by Somalia President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed, the agreement stipulates. The payments to SPG of Sh 10 million ($100,000) per month for four months, entails other general work by the lobbying group to enhance Somalia’s image in the US, the agreement said. Last year, US suspened food and fuel aid to Somali government’s military forces over alleged rampant corruption scandal. Caasimada Online Mogadishu News Desk Caasimada@live.com

MARKA, Somalia (Caasimada Online) – Heavy fighting broke out last night between Somali army forces and Al-Shabaab fighters in Marka town, some 91km southwest of the capital Mogadishu. The clash flared up in Jilib-Marka area after heavily armed fighters launched gun attack on police station and military base, a policeman Mohamed Hussein said. Hussein says the Al-Shabaab fighters raided bases manned by government soldiers, leaving 3 people dead. Up to 7 other people were reportedly sustained injuries from the latest fighting in the coastal town of Marka. The group’s fighters also fired several mortar rockets at military bases, according to a witness, who asked to be anonymous. He told Caasimada Online that the skirmish had lasted for an hour, saying both sides used heavy and slight weapons during the fighting. Neither Somali military nor Al-Shabaab has commented on the gun battle that took place in the coastal town in south of Somalia. The militant group has lost the coastal town of Marka to Somali army forces following joint military offensive earlier this week. Al-Shabab has been waging an insurgency in Somalia for more than 10 years. A 22,000-strong African Union force is in the country to help the government fight the al-Qaeda-linked militants. The group has been driven out of many urban areas since 2011, however it still controls territory in rural areas and carries out gun attacks and bombings on military and civilian targets.
