Why Africa matters to the UK On 23 February senior representatives from over 40 governments and many multi-lateral organisations will come together in London. As the Foreign Secretary stated in his video blog last year, “Britain will be giving a lot of attention to Somalia and bringing greater stability there over the coming years.” The Conference will be an opportunity to build momentum amongst the international community to step-up its efforts to tackle both the root causes and effects of the problems in the country. We have been inspired to host this conference partly by the problems that affect us directly and partly by the terrible suffering of the Somali people. For example, terrorism and organised crime, manifested in piracy and kidnappings pose direct threats to UK citizens and economic interests. The cost of containing these problems is already high and will continue to grow unless the international community acts. We have been working with international partners to tackle piracy. There are now approximately 1,000 pirates in custody and there have been no hijacks in the Gulf of Aden since 2010 but this remains a very important issue for Britain. Here are just a few of the reasons why: 23,000 ships transit through the Gulf of Aden each year, making it the second busiest international trade route in the world. Nearly one trillion dollars of trade to and from Europe travelled through the Gulf of Aden in 2008. The turnover of the British shipping industry is worth £10.7Bn of our national GDP.

Never seen it before ..... but yeah, looks interesting.

Ikemefuna is a house boy who drinks the wine of his Boss with impunity then adds water to cover his tracks. His Boss was suspicious & decided to buy pasties (a French wine that changes color if you add water just like Dettol).... ... Unknowing, Ikemefuna, drank from the wine & topped it up with water as usual.... ...Sadly for him, immediately he added water the pasties became milky & when the Boss came back & noticed it, he knew he had nailed Ikemefuna. Ikemefuna knew he was in trouble & decided to stay put in the kitchen when his boss came home. The Boss told his wife what he observed. "Ikemefuna!", he called from the sitting room. He answered: "Yes, Boss". "Who drank my pasties?". Ikemefuna :No answer. The Boss asked again: still no answer. Then the Boss went to the kitchen to meet him there: "Are you insane or what? Why when I call you say "yes boss" but when I ask you a question you don't answer me? " Ikemefuna retorted, "hmmm oga when you are in the kitchen you don't understand anything at all, except your name" "Is that so?" asked the boss, "Okay, go to the bar stand beside Madam, while I'll go into the kitchen & then ask me a question" Ikemefuna accepted. When his boss was in the kitchen he shouts: "Boss!". "Yes, Ikem" his Boss answers. Ikemefuna then asks, "Who goes into the maid's bedroom when Madam is not at home?" No answer. The boy shouted again: "Boss, I say who dey sneak to the maid's room when madam no dey house?" No answer. The Boss runs back from the kitchen shouting "Wonders will never cease! Ikemefuna, It is true, when one is in the kitchen, one does not hear anything, except one's name." The wife interrupted, "that’s not true. It’s a lie without argument." Ikemefuna asked if she'll enter the magic kitchen to be tested. She agreed. Ikemefuna asks madam, "Who be Junior's real papa? Me or the Boss?" Madam: ( rushed out of the kitchen.) "This kitchen needs to be fumigated I can't understand anything "

It has been a good and remarkable progress towards Somlailand's recognition ...... that is if u know what i'm talking about

A young girl about to go on a 1st date with her boyfriend was been tutored by her grandma: "He will try to kiss you, allow him. He will try to cuddle you, allow him. He will try to lay u down and get on top of you, don't allow him". The girl asked, "grandma, why?". Grandma said, "because if you do that, you have allowed him to disgrace you and all your family". Girl said "okay" and left on her date. Several hours later she returned and grandma asked "how did it go?". Girl said "exactly as you said except when he laid me down and tried to disgrace our family, I turned him over, got on top of him and disgraced his family". Grandma fainted!!
