Uncovering the Depths of Corruption in Somalia's Government

[Deeq A.]

Somalia is a country that has been plagued by corruption for decades. The government has been identified as one of the main sources of corruption in the country. This paper aims to examine the various forms of corruption that are prevalent within the Somali government, as well as the impact that this corruption has on the country and its citizens. One of the main forms of corruption within the Somali government is embezzlement. This is the unauthorized use of public funds for personal gain. Officials within the government often divert funds that are meant for public projects and services, such as infrastructure and education, into their own pockets. This not only undermines the government's ability to provide basic services to its citizens, but also fuels the mistrust between the citizens and the government.
