As the world grapples with COVID-19 in its final round, the Somalian government faces criticism for its lax approach to fight the pandemic. The Horn of Africa country has not imposed a proper lockdown since March 2020, when the first coronavirus case was reported in the country. However, a curfew was imposed for less than a month in April last year. Somalis are behaving as if there is no coronavirus, with no restrictions in public places and educational institutions, including universities. Medical experts warned this attitude is dangerous for a country whose healthcare system remains weak because of poor resources. “There is a lack of awareness and strong centralized government system, which can implement its policies nationwide,” Dr. Hassan Adan, a medical doctor at Tiirow Hospital in Baidoa city, told Anadolu Agency. “A lot of people do not believe that coronavirus is real and dangerous. Some people even think rain can cure the novel disease.” On top of that, government briefings on the nation's COVID-19 situation are not frequent. The last briefing was held in November. “I lost a friend who had difficulty in breathing. I believe he died of COVID-19 but his family denies it,” a 37-year-old businessman in Mogadishu, Abdi Aziz Yusuf, told Anadolu Agency. “The situation would have been different had we received proper and timely information on the disease's symptoms and causes,” he added. Opposition lawmakers criticized the way the government handled the pandemic. “It seems the government saw political and economic interests in the pandemic in the first place. The government exaggerated the number in the first six months and then stopped releasing all necessary information for the public about the coronavirus,” Ilyas Ali Hassan, an opposition member of the Senate, told Anadolu Agency. Building healthcare Somali Health Ministry and the EU launched a €5 million ($6 million) multi-year project to support the World Health Organization (WHO) and Somalia to prevent further spread of the coronavirus and strengthen the health services delivery across the country. “In addition to saving lives and preventing the spread of COVID-19, this project will help us build a legacy for Somalia’s health systems,” Health and Human Services Minister Dr. Fawziya Abikar Nur said. “We are grateful to our partners, the EU and WHO, who are supporting us to reduce the burden and effects of deadly and communicable diseases, save lives of our community members, and make our health systems stronger and more effective,” she added, speaking at the project’s launching ceremony in the capital Mogadishu. “We are leaving no stone unturned. Together with the EU, and the Federal Government of Somalia, we are redoubling our efforts to ensure everyone, everywhere in this country is safe and protected from COVID-19 and other health threats. "Strengthening coordination and operational capacity for risk communication and delivering people-centered primary healthcare services will help marginalized and vulnerable populations. This will contribute immensely to building the healthcare systems,” said Dr. Mamunur Rahman Malik, WHO Representative in Somalia. Mohamed Ibrahim, a healthcare expert in Mogadishu, told Anadolu Agency the only way forward is to work together to overcome this pandemic. “Medical doctors, the government, and the public need to work together to overcome this.” Frontline warriors Since Somalia announced its first case, 245 healthcare workers have tested positive for the virus, including 59 women workers, according to Zahra Isse Mohamed, head of the National Public Health Reference Laboratory. National Incident Manager of COVID-19 Abdirizak Yusuf Ahmed said: “Most of the medical staff, doctors, nurses and laborers who have contracted COVID-19 are working at Demartino Hospital, in Mogadishu, National Lab, and some other hospitals.” “The reason behind largescale infections among health workers was lack of awareness and shortage of protective gears. But now the government has provided protective equipment and other essential items to overcome the virus,” Ahmed told Anadolu Agency. Total cases in the country reached 4,862, with 1,008 active cases and 134 deaths. Banadir, the most populated region in the country, Somaliland and Puntland are the most affected regions. Banadir reported 1,717 cases, Somaliland 1,430, Puntland 1,182, Jubaland 238, Southwest 145, Galmudug 124, and Hirshabelle 26. The current positivity rate of coronavirus in the East African country is 6.4%, while the fatality rate is 2.7%, according to the UN Office of Coordination for Humanitarian Affairs, (OCHA) Somalia office. According to the government, more than 200,000 people in the country have been tested so far. Turkey helps Somalia fight pandemic Turkey was the first foreign country to send a planeload of medical supplies to Somalia, days after the country announced its first infection. Medical supplies included masks, overalls, test kits, and other items, according to a Somali government official. On Monday, Recep Tayyip Erdogan Hospital in the capital Mogadishu urged all patients and relatives visiting the hospital to wear masks. “Due to the increased COVID-19 cases in Mogadishu, all patients and their relatives coming to our hospital must wear masks. In order to reduce the crowdedness only 40 patients will be admitted to the outpatient clinic of each department, except for emergency cases,” the hospital said in a statement. Vaccination campaign A World Health Organization official said Somalia will receive 1.2 million doses of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine this month to cover 20% of its population. According to Mamunur Rahman Malik, the WHO head in Somalia, the vaccine will cover 600,000 frontline health workers and municipalities staff -- 3% of the country's 15 million people. These doses will be handed to the government free of charge, but it will need to buy additional vaccines to immunize the remaining 80% of the population Xigasho

Somalia to get 1.2M free vaccine doses WHO says free vaccine will cover 600,000 frontline health workers in Horn of Africa country The World Health Organization Wednesday announced that Somalia will receive 1.2 million doses of the Oxford Astrazaneca vaccine this month. Mamunur Rahman Malik, the WHO head in Somalia, told VOA Somali service on Wednesday evening that the vaccine will cover 600,000 frontline health workers, which is 3% of the Horn of African country's population. He said the country will get more doses in March and April this year to cover 20% of its population. The 1.2 million vaccine doses will be handed over to the Somali government for free, but it will need to buy more vaccines to immunize the remaining 80% of the country's population. Somalia has so far recorded 4,814 overall cases, including 962 active cases, and 132 deaths, according to the Somali Health Ministry. Meanwhile, the EU launched a €5 million ($6 million) project to support the WHO activities and the Federal Government of Somalia to prevent further spread of COVID-19 and strengthen the health services delivery across the country. Health Minister Fawziya Abikar Nur said: “In addition to saving lives and preventing the spread of COVID-19, this project will help us build a legacy for Somalia’s health systems.” “We are grateful to our partners, the EU and WHO, who are supporting us to reduce the burden and effects of deadly and communicable diseases, save lives of our community members and make our health systems stronger and more effective.” Nicolas Berlanga Martínez, EU Ambassador to Somalia, said: “COVID-19 should be seen as an opportunity to develop better public services and make Federal and States’ institutions work together in a more coordinated way.” Xigasho

The two shilin Soomaali currencies that was in circulation in different xaafado in Xamar? Xaafadii Bermuuda oo cidii gasho meydkooda la weyn jiray xataa?

Arrimaha Somaliland iyo Arrinta Gedo oo ah labada qodob ee si adag la isugu haayo ayaa weli xal laga gaarin, iyadoo tan iyo shalay markii uu shirka furmay aheyd dood taagneyd oo aan horumar laga sameyn. Afar Madaxweyne Dowlad Goboleed ayaa loo saaray xalinta arrinta Gedo, sida Madaxweynayaasha Galmudug, Puntland, Hirshabelle iyo Koofur Galbeed, inkastoo aanay wax horumar ka sameyn qodobada la isku hayay. Madaxweyne Farmaajo ayaa la sheegay inuu ka hor-yimid qodobada la soo jeediyay ee xal ka gaarista Gedo, sida in Ciidan Boolis AMISOM la geeyo Garbahaarey, Maamulka degmada lagu celiyo iyo in Guddiga Doorashada la geeyo. Wararka ayaa sheegaya in Axmed Madoobe uu ka baaqsaday shirka caawa, taasoo ku aadan in aan tallaab horumar ah laga sameyn qodobadii maanta looga hadlay, shirka caawa ayaa waxa fadhiya dhammaan Madaxdda kale. Shirka Dhuusamareeb ayaa u muuqda mid maalmo dheeraad ah qaadanaya, maadaama jadwalkii uu Madaxweynaha u qorsheeyay shirkaas uu ka dib dhacay. Xigasho

Lamaanaha arooska ahaa: ‘markii aan ka waynay dadkii soo baxay, maydkooda ayaan iska sugnay’ Lamaane Soomaali ah oo dhawaan ku aqal galay Hoteelka Afrik ayaa ka mid noqday dadkii rayidka ahaa ee ku dhintay weerarkii shalay ka dhacay magaalada Muqdisho. Fahad Cabdiraxmaan iyo Farhiyo Cali Cumar waxay aroos ahaayeen sagaal maalmood oo kaliya, waxayna ku geeriyoodeen isla goobtii ay ku yagleeleen aqalkooda rajadu ku dheehneyd, sida ay xubno ka tirsan qoyskooda u sheegeen BBC-da. Cali Cumar, oo ah aroosadda aabeheed ayaa sheegay in gabadhiisu ay soo wacday markii uu weerarka billowday, durbadiina uu halkaas tagay. "Meesha waan gali weynay, aniga ayaa diyaar u ahaa inaan nafteyda u huro badbaadinta gabadheyda," ayuu yidhi Cali. Laakiin ugu dambeyn markii weerarka lasoo afjaray, Fahad iyo Farxiyo lugahooda ugama soo bixin halkaas, labadoodiina way ku naf waayeen goobta. Aabbe Cali Cumar ayaa BBC-da uga warramay sida ay xaaladdiisu ahayd markii uu dadkii lasoo badbaadiyay ka dhex arki waayay gabadhiisa iyo seygeeda. Isagoo ay murugo badan ka muuqatay ayuu yidhi sidan: "Gabadheyda iyo ninkeedaba waxaan ka waayay dadkii bukaan socodka ahaa ama dadkii dhaawaca ahaa. Marka waxaa i sugayay xaalad kale oo ah sida aan ku heli lahaa meydadkooda, saacadaha yar ee la ii sheegayay in gudaha la ii fasixi doono si aan meydadka u arko waxay ila noqdeen sanado badan." Fahad ayaa dhawaan ka yimid Mareykanka, ka hor inta uusan la aqal galin Farxiyo, sida ay noo sheegeen ehelada iyo dariska qoyskan oo aad uga argagaxay dhacdada. Meydka lamaanahan oo lagu kala qaaday labo gaari oo ambalaas ah ayaa maanta lagu soo aasay qabuuro ku yaalla duleedka magaalada Muqdisho. Hoteelka la weeraray, oo ku yaalla agagaarka KM4 ee bartamaha caasimadda Soomaaliya ayaa lagu yaqaannay in ay dagaan saraakiisha dowladda iyo xildhibaannada baarlamaanka, kuwaasoo qaarkood ay gudaha ku jireen markii qaraxa uu dhacay. 15 qof oo weerarka shalay ku dhintay waxaa ka mid ahaa Janaraal Maxamed Nuur Galaal, oo ay shacabka Soomaalida badankood aad u yaqaanneen, muddo dheerna kasoo mid ahaa saraakiishii sar sare ee milatariga Soomaaliya. Falkan ayaa yimid dhowr isbuuc kaddib markii madaxweynihii hore ee Mareykanka Donald Trump uu amar ku bixiyay in Soomaaliya laga soo saaro 700 oo ciidamada Mareykanka ah. Ciidamadaas ayaa laamaha amniga ee maxalliga ah ka caawin jiray la dagaallanka kooxaha kasoo horjeeda dowladda, oo ay ka mid yihiin Al-Shabaab. BBC

Masiibadii habeenkii Axada ka dhacday hotelka Afrik ee kooxda Al-Shabaab ku xasuuqeen dad kala duwan ayaa waxaa dadkaasi ka mid ahaa Fahad Cabdiraxmaan iyo Farxiyo Cali oo sagaal maalmood ka hor guurkooda ka dhacay magaalada Muqdisho, kana mid ahaa dadkii Hotel Afrik maalmaha malabka ku qaadanayay hotelka. Fahad ayaa wuxuu ka tegay dalka Holland si uu magaalada Muqdisho ugula aqal galo lamaanahiisa Farxiya Cali, waxaana meherkoodu uu dhacay sagaal maalin ka hor sida uu Caasimada Online u sheegay madaxa shirkadda Arag Rijopleidingen Ridwaan Maxamed Xasan oo saaxiibo isla soo koray ahaa marxuumka. Lamaanahaan oo ka mid ahaa dadkii hotelka deganaa ee ku dhintay weerarkaasi ayaa kooxihii weerarkii fuliyay ay si arxan daran ay qolkii ay ka deganaayeen hotelka ugu dileen. Allaha u naxariistee Fahad C/raxmaan oo Somalia kasoo tegay sanadkii 1995-kii ayaa aheyd markii ugu horeysay ee uu ku laabto Muqdisho, si uu halkaasi ula soo aqal galo qofkii uu dunida ka doortay, hase ahaatee nasiib daro sagaal maalmood kadib, wuxuu ku baxay gacan ka xaq daran isagoo hamigiisii gaarin. Weerarkaan ayaa waxaa sheegtay ururka mayalka adag ee Al-Shabaab oo sheegtay in dadkii ay hotel Afrik ku dileen ay ahaayeen saraakiil iyo shaqaale dowladeed. Xigasho

It is 30 years to the day the day madaxweynihii Siyaad Barre left Muqdisho for good. What did change in these three decades? For good or bad. SOMALI REBEL FORCES CLAIM VICTORY NAIROBI, KENYA, JAN. 27 -- Rebels fighting to overthrow the authoritarian 21-year rule of Somali leader Mohamed Siad Barre announced an offensive breakthrough in the bloody month-old conflict today, saying they had captured the state radio station and presidential palace in Mogadishu, capital of the East African country. As Siad Barre's dwindling forces were reportedly driven from the city by a fierce rebel assault, the insurgent Somali National Congress jubilantly claimed that the government had been overthrown. A congress spokesman said on Radio Mogadishu: "Last night . . . the government and responsibility of the Somali people were taken over by the {rebel} movement. We are addressing you from Radio Mogadishu, the voice of the Somali people." Siad Barre's troops, meantime, were said to be still in tenuous control of the international airport and its immediate vicinity. It was not clear whether the octogenarian Somali leader also had retreated to the airport, but the Associated Press quoted rebel leaders in London as saying that he was surrounded with his forces there and that "we believe he may have been captured." Over the past 10 days, as the conflict slackened to an apparent stalemate in the capital, Siad Barre offered numerous times to step down and leave the country if the rebels would agree to a cease-fire. The rebels declined and continued to press for an advantage. In London, rebel spokesmen said that within 48 hours they would announce an interim government to administer the country until the main rebel groups could meet to form a democratic government representing the various clans and regions of the nation of 8 million, one of the world's poorest. There was no immediate indication of rebel plans to restore order in Mogadishu, site of weeks-long anarchy, widespread looting and wholesale bloodshed in which thousands of civilians have been slain and many more thousands left homeless. In today's broadcast, however, the rebels appealed for peace and called on all citizens to refrain from looting. Telex and telephone lines between Somalia and the outside world have been inoperative for several weeks, since shortly after the clan-based rebel alliance began its offensive in Mogadishu on Dec. 30. Today, however, in a brief satellite telephone link to London, an international-aid worker in Mogadishu contacted the British Broadcasting Corp. and described the latest round of street fighting in the city. The aid worker, identified as Murray Watson, said in the BBC interview that embattled government forces had lobbed dozens of artillery shells against civilian targets over the weekend and that hundreds of people had been killed. Other reports reaching Nairobi today described feverish looting by rebel soldiers and civilians of the presidential palace, called Villa Somalia, after the insurgents drove government troops away. The rebel coalition -- which is based on regional clan affiliations that traditionally have defined political power in the country -- has accused the Siad Barre regime of numerous atrocities and human-rights abuses against political rivals during a harsh rule that began with a military coup in 1969. Last year, the human-rights monitoring group Africa Watch estimated that Somali government forces had killed as many as 50,000 unarmed civilians between June 1988 and January 1990. The victims were said to have come mainly from the northern Isaak clan, which along with the large central Mogadishu Clan clan forms a large part of the rebel opposition to the regime. Siad Barre and most of his closest political allies are members of the tiny Marehan clan, which makes up less than 1 percent of Somalia's population. During his years in power, Siad Barre steered the predominantly Moslem nation through shifting diplomatic associations with the Soviet Union and the United States, becoming Washington's closest ally in the Horn of Africa during most of the 1980s and the recipient of more than $700 million in economic and military aid. In recent years, however, in the wake of continuing allegations of human-rights violations and a lessening of the strategic importance of the region, the United States cut back sharply on such payments. The fierce conflict has driven at least 35,000 refugees to seek safety in neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia, according to U.N. officials here. Washington Post - Jan. 27th, 1991
