Ahmed In Burco

"I created this Weblog to share with my friends all over the world my new experience as a Development Worker in Somaliland. I am the new HIV/AIDS Youth Advisor for ICD (International Cooperation for Development). I am stationed in Burco but my work covers the entire Country. Burco is located around 310KM to Hargeisa, It a dusty town with it’s own particular charm. Burco is the second city of Somaliland after Hargeisa. My family is from here so I am very lucky to be posted here. I will be uploading picture of Burco and the surroundings. Stay tuned."

These are pictures of SOmaliland, and Axmed never even told us who these houses belong to, so please stop puting useless captions under the homes and lives of people you dont know, just because you have hateraid flowing in your vains.

 

VIVA SOMALILAND, and much luck to all my Landers building up Somaliland.

 

Bari Nomad Stick to what you know best, MOgadhisho ya dig.

 

P.S. I thought you guys hated Edna Aden, whats up with all the pictures of her Nursing School?

Please refrain from nonsense outbursts that serve absolutely no purpose.I have seen these pics in their original website and Bari copied them in their original form.

You want the name of the Qat trader,well he's called Ina Af Diinle(thats how everyone knows him)That SOB is so freaking rich just getting people high.The house in the picture is one of the many homes he owns.

[Haashim]

Ibtilo, if he (Bari Nomad) hates Burco, as you said, he wouldn'ot post these beautiful pictures.

So, Please is khabooji this isn't hate website.

Gediid i laughed to his name Ina Af Diinle , what i ask myself is allmost every reer woqooyi's nickname or if you don't mind khaldan's nickname is INA .... and all of them are funny, so where are the nicknames of present generation since all of them carry their father's nickname?

 

These some i heard or know .. Ina Dhoobaale, Ina Gahaydh (ilaahay ha u naxariisto waxaan maqlay inuu dhintay) Ina Xaabul, Ina Qawdhan etc.

 

Ina Af Diinle :eek: , anyhow i understood what this mean :cool:

[Gediid]

Muraad

Thats an interesting point you raised because almost all the people I know I refer to as Ina Hebel eventho I do know their first names.I can't quite say how this developed but thats the norm there in Somaliland.

[VisiT]

 

Here, you got some beautiful houses in Somaliland man. The one I copied looks suberp ... My kinda building.
