Remember that this nation is involved with Somalia, making an attempt to assist them to put back a government. The civilians, as in any other struggle, are being put in hazard and often killed for no motive. I found an article in at this time’s news headlines talking in regards to the harmful conditions that Ethiopians are dealing with.

With the latest terrorist attacks on a Ugandan World Cup watch social gathering, many, together with the African Union (AU), are actually wondering if the international neighborhood needs a stronger army presence in Somalia.

The Somali Republic is a country in the horn of Africa (a peninsula in Northeast Africa). In fact, the easternmost point on mainland Africa, Cape Guadarfui, is found in Somalia. In other words, Somalia is the easternmost country on the African mainland.

Remember the American man and the three Britons who got caught with over $3m, brought into Somalia to pay a ransom to pirates? Luckily they have been released, with the government keeping all the money.

Somalia is one of the world’s poorest and most fragile countries. During the civil war, the state was unable to deliver basic services, such as health care, or maintain the country’s infrastructure.

On December 12, 1992, the U.S. 28,000 soldiers into Somalia under the cover of the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM) in what they said was a “humanitarian mission” to bring food to starving people.

The Somali are grouped as a Cushitic tribe who live in North Eastern Province of Kenya. They are believed to have their origin in the Ogaden region in Southern Ethiopia. Their population is about 500,000 people leaving in northeastern of Kenya. The Ajuran and the Ogaden subgroups live in Kenya as well as Somalia and Ethiopia.

Today the main story where i live is about refugees from our neighbouring country Somali, the number of displaced persons is over one million and according to the Government Spokesman Mr. Alfred Mutua the trek is due to hunger. Some of the affected people having walked over 100s of Kiliometres yet they are Women and Children. He also says the Border is closed though no refugees have been returned but the situation is grave and camps should be built in Somalia. What do we do, please consider sending one unit of your national currency or more to the nearest Red cross or Red Cresent association near you. Jambo it is now 5/8/2011 about two weeks since the first post, what a response to the request for support, this is really encouraging. By 5th August 2011, the Kenyan public have through an initiative of Kenyans for Kenyans raised Kshs 100million through an M pesa initiative.
