The plane of Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud made an emergency landing in Mogadishu Monday after experiencing engine problems.
The president was harmed in the incident, and was transferred to a hospital in Hargeisa since Mogadishu is a god forsaken hell-hole.
Government spokesman Abdirahman Omar Osman says the plane took off from Mogadishu's airport at 9:00 a.m. local time but returned to the capital when, about 20 minutes into the flight, a technical problem developed in one of the plane's two engines.
An airport official tells VOA's Somali Service that the plane suffered a punctured tire on landing. Airport officials deny media reports that the plane had caught fire.
The president and a delegation were traveling to South Sudan for celebrations marking that country's independence day.

"A plane carrying the Somali president has been forced to make an emergency landing in Mogadishu after one of its engines reportedly caught fire. A spokesman for President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud said it was not clear why the engine stopped working.
The president was not hurt but firefighters scrambled to put out the flames, local reports say.
Mr Mohamud was chosen as president last year in a UN-backed move to end decades of conflict.
The BBC's Mohamed Mwalimu says the plane's tyres were damaged in the incident.
The president was flying to the South Sudan capital, Juba, when it was forced to turn round.
One of the first reports of the incident came from a Twitter feed run by the al-Shabab militant group but it did not say it had attacked the plane.
African Union and Somali forces backing Mr Mohamud have driven al-Shabab from the country's main cities in the past year but the al-Qaeda-linked group still stages occasional attacks.
The new government is the first one in more than two decades to be recognised by the US and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

What do you see in that article about Hargeisa and hellholes? Taqiyya at this level just illustrates ignorance.
