Senior Somali cops train in Uganda

Kampala, Uganda, 08/24 - A contingent of 65 senior police officers from Somalia has commenced a three-week training course in Uganda as the Horn of Africa nation embarks on institutional building after a protracted civil strife, media reports said here Wednesday.

 

Maj. Gen. Katumba Wamala, Uganda police chief, said at the start of the training Tuesday that the exercise, which is funded by the UN Development Programme (UNDP), would help further cement ties between the two countries.

 

"Uganda was honored to be picked among other countries to train Somali police officers," he said.

 

Somali deputy internal affairs minister Fahma Ahmed praised President Yoweri Museveni for his efforts in helping to restore Somalia to normalcy.

 

"We used to send our officers for training in the UK and United States, but now we shall train them in Africa," she said.

In the old government days

We had two strange Officers

One was trained in the US

The other in the Ex-Soviet

One supported capitalism

The other loved Socialism

In the philosophy of development

They had different vision

They had different outlook

They pulled the nation apart

 

In the present day of chaos

We have two strange neighbors

One belongs to this X-clan

The other is from that Y-clan

They share little in common

They rarely talk each other

They rarely help each other

 

Their zone is laden with dirt

No one bothers to clean it

The water pipes are broken

No one bothers to fix them

They attend tribal meetings

But never come together to meet

Common property thus neglected

Individualism is on the rise

Devil is pulling them apart

They speak of nationhood

When they killed neighborhood

A cart never comes before the horse
