The starving in Mogadishu herded around like property

Post by MJ360 »

A whole privatized camp network filled with starving displaced people, seven year old orphan children who looked the size of toddlers and all are being herded around like property.

“You see these orphans?” Says one privatized camp entrepreneur, pointing at some kids in the camp. “Some of them I have collected from other camps! Some of them I have collected from their villages.”

Desperate people, who might have been driven into Mogadishu because of famine or armed conflict in their home village. “They might have been shepherds who no longer have a flock, and in fact they have become the flock,” Brady said. “They are now the sheep that are herded around this city, and used for the gain of others.”

Somalia cursed with a government which still has no real proposal to protect its most vulnerable citizens.
