Peacenow Posted January 21, 2007 Why are Northerners more civilized and have achieved more? Because they are educated. They take it very seriously. Universities are springing up and people are being trained. Siyad Barrer never bothered to invest the money to educate people and the result is all clear. The focus should be on education, 100%, if only rid to the Somali of the clan mentality disease. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One thing is for certain, the education institutions were inadequate to the graduates who were longing to achieve their educational goals however without the mottos of "Bar ama Baro" and "ololihii reer miyiga" I think we would have less people who either can read or write today thus let us put things into prespective Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeaceNow, cant you see that you contradicting yourself here? if Northerners are more civilized and have achieved more (educated) as you put it in that way my question to you is how did they got there whilst they were within the republic i.e in Somalia? you see as MansaMunsa mentioned the "Bar ama Baro" campaign championed by Siad Barre (R.I.P) was there for every somali and so if that had the beneficial effect on our Northerner brothers, then good! blame the southerner for their inability to read AA,EE,II,OO & UU but not Aabe Siyaad. -lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
