The Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Mohammed bin Zayed, was put in an uncomfortable situation by Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali when he asked him to support the establishment of an Islamic institute in Addis Ababa. Abiy Ahmed recalled this situation during an open meeting of the Ethiopian community held by Badr Ethiopia Organization in the city of Virginia, US, according to an Ethiopian activist who attended the meeting and reported the statement to Al-Khaleej Online. Speaking of the conversation he had with bin Zayed, Abiy said, “I asked him about the construction of an Islamic institute, and I asked him: ‘What would you (as Emiratis) help us with? And he answered, “We will support you in everything, and we will teach you.” However, Abiy Ahmed stopped him and answered by saying: “We do not need you to teach us Islam. You have lost it. We want you to teach us the Arabic language quickly so that we can understand true Islam and then get you back on track.” He added, “I told him that if we got all the population of the Gulf countries together, we would find out that they are much fewer than the Muslim population in Ethiopia, he asked me ‘why are you talking in numbers?’ and I replied ‘because Islam considers the crowd as a source of strength’.” The speech was highlighted by the AR-Ethiopia account on Twitter. This is not the first Ethiopian insult to Abu Dhabi. In mid-July, the Ethiopian Foreign Ministry denied UAE’s claims about playing the role of a mediator with Eritrea regarding its 20-year-long conflict. The Ethiopian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Meles Alem, stressed that the Asmara agreement has been signed recently with Eritrea is in the interests of both countries and occurred without the mediation of any third party. The clarification of the Ethiopian Ministry of Foreign Affairs came as a response to UAE media news outlets which gave credit to the UAE and its Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the completion of the reconciliation. The UAE has faced renewed African objections against its tendencies in the continent. While Abu Dhabi sought to mobilise the countries of the world to boycott Qatar during its siege in June 2017, many countries rejected these pressures and attempts, including Ethiopia, which confirmed support for Kuwait’s efforts to resolve the Gulf crisis.

Crate diggers are cultural archaeologists who dedicate their time, money and energy to collecting musical artefacts that provide alternative histories from the fringes of society. They frequent record stores, flea markets, garage sales, charity shops and other places of “disposal” to find rare vinyl records or cassettes. But as music producer, journalist and digger Kathy Iandoli explained: Cratedigging isn’t merely ‘record shopping’ though. It’s a hunt for the DNA of a popular song you’re in love with. An addiction to origins. A recent compilation album of 1970s/80s music from the Horn of Africa, “Sweet as Broken Dates: Lost Somali Tapes”, is a great example of this. Half of the compilation is sung by women, their voices often compared in Somali poetry to the “sweetness of broken dates”. The album’s 15 songs, coming from cassette tapes and master reels, had to literally be dug up from shelters after being hidden to protect it during Somalia’s two decade civil war. This astonishing story goes back to 1988, when Somalia’s military dictator Siad Barre responded with air strikes to the Somaliland region which was agitating for independence. Barre targeted Radio Hargeisa in Somaliland’s capital city to prevent any kind of central communication system that could organise a resistance. A few brave broadcasters knew that the archives with their more than half a century of Somali music had to be preserved. Thousands of cassettes and reels were quickly removed. They took them to neighbouring Djibouti and Ethiopia and buried them deep under the ground to withstand even the most powerful airstrikes. These audio artefacts were excavated from their shelters only very recently. Some are now kept in the 10,000-strong cassette tape archive of the Red Sea Foundation in Hargeisa. A team from Ostinato Records, a New York-based label that documents music from the African continent and diaspora, digitised a large portion of the archive. Historical grandeur Ostinato Records founder Vik Sohonie recently expressed the importance of reviving and sharing old Somali music to illuminate Somalia’s historical grandeur. The most defining feature of the archive was its ability to transport our hearts and minds to Mogadishu of the 1970s and 1980s, when the coastal capital glistened as the ‘Pearl of the Indian Ocean’, when wine and cosmopolitanism flowed freely… He highlighted the importance of the unseen cultural archaeology that crate diggers do and the impact this work might have in broader society. “Sweet as Broken Dates” is a powerful example. I’m talking as a digger myself – we actively archive and curate the stories and the experiences of the people in our own ways. Crate diggers often build huge collections of rare and forgotten records that contain the stories and experiences of people whose stories have not made it into our society’s official historical memory. These musical tales are often recontextualised through sampling or curated for the dance floor where they find new life. As an Afrofuturist scholar I liken crate diggers to the “Data Thief” in John Akomfrah’s 1996 documentary “The last angel of history”. He travels across time to make archaeological digs for fragments of history that hold the key to the future. Music plays a prominent role in exploring and shaping the future through engaging with the counter-histories encoded in historical artefacts such as records. I also see parallels between crate diggers and the custodians of the ancient Manuscripts of Timbuktu. The manuscripts are key to preserving an alternative understanding of knowledge production from the African continent so that we might understand Africa differently to the unjust general imperialist history that is often paraded as the only account of our past. Forgotten records As a crate digger, I’ve come to understand that the forgotten records we often find in the dingiest of places can contain alternative perspectives and social commentary on particular movements, epochs or historical events. Our record finds allow us to experience the sound, the consciousness and the ambience of forgotten times and places. They provide a unique way of engaging with the past – for the crate digger and the listener alike. While a book might provide information about a particular place and time a record might also provide a unique sensory experience. Each crate digger essentially builds a personal library of sonic texts that often cannot be found on the internet or in the official archives. This makes them custodians of these unique cultural artefacts. Building and preserving these collections can become a lifelong obsession. We recycle them for present and future generations to enjoy, admire and understand. Unlike book collectors who might keep their collections private, many crate diggers share their discoveries. They take them into class rooms. Hip-hop musicians like 9th Wonder (who teaches at Duke University in North Carolina) and Questlove (New York University) come to mind. Others sample them to great effect, like leftfield producers such as Madlib and J Dilla. Most diggers simply play them out in DJ sets at their local club. In genres like hip hop, house and techno, crate digging plays an important part in finding the source material for sampling. The source material is not only sampled for its sonic qualities, but also often for the message or story it contains, the social references it makes and the intertextuality it provides. Within these genres crate diggers are respected as sonic archaeologists and music scholars. Source: Theconversation

Abu Dhabi (Caasimada Online) – Sida aan wararkeena hore ku sheegnay Dowladda Imaaraadka Carabta ayaa dalbatay in dowladda Somalia ay raali gelin buuxda ka bixiso dhacdadii bishii April ee sanadkan Garoonka Diyaaradaha magaalada Muqdisho, taasi oo la xiriirtay Diyaarad Imaaraadku lahaa oo lagu xanibay garoonka. Dalbka raali galinta ayaa waxaa soo jeediyay Wasiiru Dowlaha Arrimaha Dibadda ee Imaaraadka Carabta Dr. Anwar Gargash oo sheegay in dowladda Somalia ay hada qiratay khaladka ay ka gashay Imaaraadka. Dr. Anwar Gargash oo u muuqday mid uu is khilaafayo haddalkiisa ayaa marka hore sheegay in Somalia ay ka dalbanayaan inay bixiso raali galin, halka qodobka labaad uu ka sheegay in Somalia ay qiratay inay khalad ka gashay Imaaraadka. Anwar Gargash, waxa uu horay u sheegay in dowlada Imaaraadka ay lacagtaasi u waday meel kale balse ay u gacangashay dowlada Somalia, isagoo xiligaa hadalkiisa ku muujinaayay mid ay ku khaldanaayen maadaama aysan wargalin dowlada Somalia, mana cada sababta uu isku khilaafayo haddalka Imaaraadka. Erayada adag ee uu adeegsanayo Anwar Gargash waxa uu daba socdaa wadahadalka ay dowlada Eriterea ay ka dhex abuureyso Somalia iyo Imaaraadka, waxa uuna dhoolatus u yahay in Somalia ay ku khasbanaan doonto aqbalaada wax waliba oo kaga imaanaya dowlada Imaaraadka sida in raali galin ay bixiso iyadoo dulman.

Madaxda Dowlada Imaaraadka carabta waxa ay inta badan si maldahan isugu dhexyaaciyan hadalada iyo eedaha ay u jeediyaan Somalia, taas oo ugu wacan inay ku fashilmaan dhamaan danihii ay ka lahaayen Somalia.

Muddo dheer waxaan wax ka baarayay sababta dowladi u horumarto midna udib dhacdo, amaba waxyaabaha ugu muhiimsan ee kadanbeeya horumarkaas iyo sidoo kale habka ugu habboon ee dowlad ku horumarto, sidoo kale waxaan wax badan ka baadhay cawaamisha keenta horumar bulsho iyo mid dowladeed,haddaba somalia oo ah dal muddo dheer burbursan sidee unoqon karaa mid kamid ah dowladaha ugu horumarsan ee kuyaal dunida?. Aniga oo ka jawaabaya su’aashaas, waxaan jeclahay in aan soo bandhigo marka hore muuqaal guud oo ah somalia caqabadaha haysta, fursadaha horyaalla, iyo xalka loo baahantahay. Tobanaan cilmi baarayaal aduunka kazoo kala jeeda ayaa 20 kii sano ee ugu danbaysay ku ahaa mashquul si ay wax uga ogaadaan sababaha keena horumar iyo dib-udhac dowlad ku yimaadda, gaar ahaan waxaa la ogaaday dowlado markoodii hore ahaa kuwo dib dhacsan oo waqti kooban kamid noqday mid kamid ah dowladaha ugu horumarsan dunida tusaale: Singapore, turkey, Malesia iyo IWM. Waxaan kaga duwanahay dad badan oo waqti badan geliyay cilmi baaris kusaabsan kobaca iyo horumarka dowladaha, eray bixinta ah, dowlad horumarsan ama dib-dhacsan waxaan aaminsanahay in lagu beddelo eray bixintaas maamul horumarsan ama maamul dib-dhacsan, ujeedkaas waxaa uu tilmaan uyahay in hormarku ama dib dhacsanaantu ay ka timaaddo cidda wax maamulaysa hadii awood uu u yeesho hoggaanka maamulaya shirkadda,bulshada, amaba dowladda hab maamul wanaagsan oo leh hufnaan iyo isla xisaabtan wanaagsan waxaa uu horseedi karaa maamulkaas in uu soo saaro bulsho wacyigeedu sarreeyo oo leh horumar dhaqaale, deganaanshiyo siyaasadeed, waxaan hubaa hadii lahelo tilmaamaha kor kuxusan in dalkaas gaari karo horumar lamid ah sida kuwa kale u horumareen, hadii xatooyo dhaqaale iyo musuq meesha yimaaddana wax walba afka ayay ciidda lagelayaan, waxaana luma markaas kalsoonida bulshada waxaa ay dareemaan bulshadu niyad jab “psychological defeat”. Farqiga u dhexeeya dowlad horumartay iyo mid dib-dhacsan maaha yaraanta ilaha dhaqaalaha oo kaliya ee waa kumaamulida garaad aqoonaysan”Smart education” maamul wanaag ama maamul xumo jirta owgeed ayaa wax hagaajin karta ama wax xumayn karta, tusaale waxaa u ah dowladaha aan soo sheegay halka ay joogeen xilli dhow iyo maanta meesha ay gaareen. United Nations Development Programme waxaa jira halbeeg ama “standard” ay ku eegaan horumarka dowlad gaarto waxaana kamid ah. – ka qayb galka muwaadinka wax soosaarka dalka . – Danaynta dowladda baxnaaninta caafimaad ee muwaadinkeeda iyo heerkiisa nololeed. – Danaynta heerka wax barasho: “sida aan lasocono halbeegga wax barasho waa midka ugu muhiimsan oo laga eego bulsho ama dowlad horumarkeed ama dib dhacsanaanteeda, dalka somalia dowladdiisii dhexe markii ay burburtay wax walba waa ay laburbureen”. Qodobbo aan u arko in ay kamaqan yihiin dowladnimada dalkeena somaliya, hadii ay innoo hagaagaanna ay kamid noqon karto mid kamid ah dowladaha ugu horumarsan dunida. 1. Is dhaliilid nafteenna ah “Self criticism” waxaa waajib ah in aan is dhaliilno oo aan si hoose u eegno halka aan joogno, halka aan hiigsanaynana hoosta aan kaxaeiiqno su,aalana iska waydiino si aan horay ugu socono hadii heerkeenu hooseeyo sidii aan usii dar dargali lahayn. 2. Doonis “volition” Doonis waa awoodda ugu wayn ee qof ama ummad haysato, ummad haysata Doonis majoojiso joogtaynta in ay raadiso waddada horumarka lagu gaaro ilaa ay u dhabowdo doonisteedu, taas beddelkeed ummada soomaaliyeed waddada horumarka ma eegaan ee iyagaa ayaa is eedeeya oo kaliya, waa inaan ogaanaa is eedayntu hadii ay badato waa tusaalaha dib dhacsanaan mid kamid ah. 3. Garaad aqoon leh ” Scientific mind” dhibkeena ugu wayn hadii aan soomaali nahay ma aaminsanin in aqoon iyo garaad wax lagu gaaro, waxaanu nahay bulsho caadifadaysan “emotional society” waa in aan ogaanaa qofkii cilmi haysta waa horumaraa qofkii jahli hoy unoqdana waxaa uu ahaadaa mid dib dhacsan oo kabayra waddada guusha iyo hormarka, dhamaan dowladaha ahaa kuwo dib dhacsan ee manta hormarsan waxaa ay siiyeen mudnaanta waxbarashada. 4. Daganaashiyo siyaasadeed, “political stability” hoggaamiyaha bulshdiisa ku hogaamiya deganaashiyo siyaasadeed oo ay hoos imaanayaan cadaalad, deganaashiyo dhaqaale, sinaan, hufnaan, eex la,aan, awoodda hoggaamineed aan lakeli noqon oo yeesha lataliyaal kuhaboon aqoona uleh waxa ay kala talinayaan, waxaa uu noqdaa mid bulshadiisa ku hoggaamiya waddada guusha oo ah mid lahubo halka ay tagayso oo ah horumar iyo barwaaqo sooran. 5. xoriyad “freedom” qof kastaa waxaa uu dhashay isaga oo xor ah, waana hibo ilaahay siiyay qof kasta, sidaa daraadeed cidina kama hor istaagi Karto, qof xor ahna ma aqbalo adoonsi iyo kelitalisnimo, sidaas awgeed ummadaha xorta ah waa kuwo tiigsada hormar, ummada soomaaliyeed waxaa looga baahan yahay in ay isku tashato si ay oga xorowdo faragalin dabadeed oo lawadaagta siyaasadooda gudaha. 6. dhaqan galinta qaanuunka ” law enforcement” sarraynta sharciga lana dhaqan geliyaa una sinnaadaan dadku iyadoon lakala soocin waa qodobo kamid ah dowladnimo wanaaga iyo hufnaanta, waana waxa ay kugaari garto somalia horumar wanaagsan iyo cadaalad saraysa. 7. Shaqo “Job” bulshada soomaaliyeed dadkeedu ama xubneheeda shaqaalaha gaarka ah iyo kuwa dowladda oo si joogta ah u shaqeeya iyagoo kutiirsan naftooda iyo awooddooda, hankooduna sareeyo iyo ku kalsoonaanta dalkooda waxaa ay noqon kartaa markaa makaas somalia mid kamid noqota dowladaha ugu horumarsan dunida, waxaa ayna si fudud u gaari kartaa barwaaqo sooran dhaqaale, bulsho iyo mid siyaasadeed. 8. Wadaniyad ” nationalism” wadaniyadu si guud marka loo eego waa dareen jacayl oo aad u qaado wadankaaga iyo adigoo lajeclaada wax kasta oo wanaag ah lana naca wax kasta oo aan u qalmin, waana tilmaan abtirsi dal iyo dad ama mid kamid ah labadaas . Ugudanbayn Somalia waxaa ay u baahantahay isku kalsoonaan waxaa ayna ku gaari kartaa, isku tiirsanan dhaqaale si xal waara loogu helo daganaashiyo la,aanta iyo faragalinta siyaasadeed, qodobada aan kor kusoo xusay waa kuwa ugu muhiimsan oo aan is dhihi karo si guud waa kuwa kanoqo kara qayb samata bixinta ummadeena soomaaliyeed iyo kuhorumarkeeda.

Some foreign fighters within Al Shabaab ranks are returning home in droves citing poor living conditions and mistreatment, according to intelligence reports. Ten Al Shabaab returnees recently surrendered to Kenya Defence Force (KDF) in Amisom’s Sector II. One of the returnees, Omar Said Omar, from Lamu told security agents that poor living conditions, mistreatment by indigenous Somalis within Al Shabaab ranks and lack of salaries had forced most foreign fighters to flee. “The miserable conditions we have been living in are the same that made me leave my home. They are the same conditions I have to live through everyday,” Omar said. He told security agents that he was recruited into Al Shabaab by his uncle, a madrassa teacher in Hindi, after their father disappeared from home. The Class Eight drop out was offered employment after sitting exams in 2014 to enable him take care of his five siblings. His uncle lived a very comfortable life, a reason he suspects his mother never inquired much about the job. “I know we were poor back home but it was better to go back home or even die. No matter how hard things were back home, I never went for three days without food or a week without showering,” another returnee Sheikh Abdul from Panda Nguo said. The two admitted that none of the returneeshave anything financial or material gain to show for their time with the terrorists, contrary to the promises by their recruiters when they joined. Unlike Omar and Abdul, Rama Mohammed from Mombasa joined Al Shabaab in pursuit of religious ideology and quest to fight for Jihad. He, however, realised Al Shabaab was not engaged in Jihad. “I know I did everything to escape and come back home, but I’m afraid to face my mother. How do I tell her I killed other people’s mothers? She would never forgive me,” Rama said. The man is desperate for his mother’s forgiveness because she has been unwell since he left. “Janaa is at her feet, that is the only Jihad I now seek,” a sobbing Rama added. The returnees say that Al Shabaab support looting and pillaging the local population for wealth which is usually a reserve of the leaders while leftovers are given to the local Somali fighters. This leaves the foreign fighters desperate and frustrated. Aerial bombardment on the terrorists positions by Kenya Defence Force (KDF) and US Forces has further forced foreign fighters to return home. Omar, Abdul and Rama are among the 10 militants who surrendered to the KDF troops in the Southern sector last month and are currently undergoing rehabilitation, psychological support and security debriefs at a secluded area before re-integration back into the society.
