Egypt has held talks with Somalia on the rehabilitation of the latter’s military facilities.
The Commander of the Somali Coast Guard Force, Admiral Farah Ahmed Omar Qare, told the media that two Egyptian generals had visited the country to study the ways rehabilitate the Somali National Army (SNA) facilities.

The Egyptian generals arrived at Mogadishu’s Aden Abdulle International Airport on Tuesday and were received by Somali military officials.

The Egyptian officials, who briefed the media, outlined their country’s commitment to assisting in the rebuilding of the war-ravaged infrastructure.

“We will aid Somalia on the rebuilding of the army headquarters and military hospitals,” stated the officials.
“The facilities will also serve the civilian population in the capital city,” they added.

Somali army is one of the institutions that had received promises of support from various countries and agencies, including the African Union, the European Union and Turkey.

The collapse of the central government led by General Mohamed Siad Barre in 1991, occasioned the collapse of all the state institutions, including the military, in the Horn of Africa country.

Almost all the new Somali army recruits were trained in neighbouring Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda.

Meanwhile, Somalia’s deputy minister for Public Works, Ports and Marine Transport, Nadifa Mohamed Osman, on a visit to Iraq, stated that Tehran would give $15 million assistance to Mogadishu.

Ms Nadifa told the press on Mogadishu Radio, a state run broadcaster, that the Iraqi fund would be used to rebuild public service institutions in the capital.

“Iraq will help Somalia in the rehabilitation of Lazaretti (also known as Forlanini) Hospital and Somali Institute of Development Administration and Management (SIDAM),” said the deputy minister.

She underlined that once rebuilt; the hospital would resume taking care of mental patients while SIDAM would resume training of personnel.

Destabilizing and weakening successive Ethiopian governments have been Egypt’s most efficiently exploited strategy to protect its monopolistic use of the Nile water. Cognizant of the internal contradictions and historical animosities among various Ethiopian constituencies, Egypt has often supported rebel groups fighting against Ethiopian rulers. This support has been both direct and indirect – in the past, it armed Eritrean and Tigrean rebels, backed Somalia’s support for Oromo and Somali insurgents, and also supported Siad Barre’s invasion.

Reportedly there was even a plan to settle millions of Egyptians in Somalia in order to balance Ethiopia’s population. Ethiopia has also alleged that Egypt took sides with Eritrea during the 1998-2000 border conflict. There is little doubt that Egypt has been using Eritrea to channel support for various Ethiopian and Somali insurgents. This Egyptian strategy has been fruitful, given the unfortunate fact that every Ethiopian ruler has relied heavily on violent suppression of dissent, and the implementation of policies that favors one ethnic group over the other, thus creating favorable domestic conditions for armed insurgency.

Mogadishu — Government sources informed GO that Somali Federal Government (SFG) Minister of the Presidential Palace Farah Abdiqadir has been in Ethiopia trying to mend deteriorating ties, Garowe Online reports.

According to SFG sources, Minister Farah who has been in Ethiopia for the past three days has been meeting with Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn to give an unidentified letter to the Ethiopian Prime Minister from the SFG President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.

The sources tell GO that the two leaders relationship turned sour after President Hassan allegedly supported Egypt against Ethiopia who begun construction of a controversial dam along the Blue Nile.

The sources say that President Hassan backed Egypt against the building of the dam after an official visit by the Egyptian Ministry of Defence on June 4th. The delegation pledged to rebuild the dilapidated headquarters of the Ministry of Defence. Also the delegation began talks on how to rebuild the Somali Armed Forces.

Ethiopia has begun construction of the dam on the Blue Nile which will cut into the lion-share 55.5 billion cubic metres that Egypt receives from the Nile River. Ethiopia and five east African countries in the Nile Basin signed the Entebbe Treaty in 2010 that states that fair and reasonable use of the Nile River is principle. Uganda is one of the other East African countries that signed the treaty.

LOL.


Well i guess every somali doesnt refer to themselves as somali, but black lmao

Somalis refer to themselves by their ethnicity for a reason.

and if knaan says he is somali, even if a somali celebrity called themselves black, its for money but somalis call themselves somali

why would the people who had slaves who were black, who treat the bantus like slaves even today, call themselves black

Three Somalis have been killed this month and the Somali government has requested the South African authorities to do more to protect their nationals.

About 200 people took part in the protest, holding a banner reading: "Everyone is a foreigner somewhere."

Correspondents say xenophobic attacks have increased recently.

Some of the protesters accused the authorities of not doing enough to prevent attack on foreigners, especially Somalis, or prosecute those responsible.

Two Somali brothers were allegedly hacked to death with an axe in the northern Limpopo province on Thursday night.

Last week, Abdi Nasr Mahmoud was stoned to death in Port Elizabeth.

Mohamed Aden Osman told the BBC that criminals saw Somalis as "soft targets".

According to the Centre for Human Rights at the University of Pretoria, South Africans are becoming "increasingly desensitised" to attacks on foreigners, The Sowetan newspaper reports.
