Somalis are Blessed

[QansaxMeygaag]

To paraphrase Chinua Achebe, there is nothing wrong with the Somali people, the Somali soil, the Somali water, the Somali air; the trouble with Somalia is a failure of LEADERSHIP.

Lol. If you're going place any value on IQ tests then you'll be happy to know that Somalis and Ethiopians rank among the worst in the world.

You're kidding, I hope. Somalis and Ethiopians are amongst the best students in overseas schools. I've seen this myself. I believe Somalis from Africa, for instance Kenya, are much better academically compared to those who were either born or have grown up in the west.

That's because most Somali Kenyans never had any disruptions to their schooling, unlike us Somalis who had to flee the war. I remember back in HS, most of us Flight 13's were required to take ESL classes, while most Sijues didn't had to do it. Even the recent arrivals from Garissa seemed to speak better English than ur average Somali. Man, there were a lot of resentment against the Kidhogo Kidhogo people back in those days. LoL

You're the one who decided to use the word I.Q. If you're going to lend any credibility to that term then you should see this list:
