As u all know we are experiencing one of the worst droughts in 60 years ! what makes things worse is the fact that the drought coincided with the lack of governance in the failed state of Somalia. This meant that the famine led to the desperate fleeing of people from the country in search of greener pasture. This unfortunately was not an easy task. Somalis flooded into neighbouring countries for survival, but this was not such a success story. i would take years if i try to narrate the whole scenario, so i decided to touch on the Daadaab desaster camps !
Daadaab complex is designed for 90,000 refugees and it has now over 450,000 refugees and the number is ever-growing. I paid a visit to the place for few weeks ago in order to deliever what good samaritans have sent to the daadaab people. Thanks to the inspiration of Somali-youth-League, people in Gevle sent 60, 000 kshs. to Daadaab. We bought the money with high-energy biscuits made of honey,chocolate,milk and egg. we also bought mosquito nets for the pregnant and nursing mothers, other things include; milk and fruit drinks. The stuff has reached over 45 families who were in desperate need of help. Here, i just want to show my appreciation to those who were involved with this work.,THANKS !
My next publishing will be about the pictures from Daadaab, at the moment the internet is down. take care!
