Baajuun love us. We give them opportunity.
[quote]3.7.3 The small Bajuni population (around 11,000 in 2003) is traditionally made up of fishermen and sailors from coastal settlements and islands south of Kismayo. They suffered considerably at the hands of Somali militia during the civil war in the early 1990s, have lost property and were prevented from pursuing their traditional livelihoods by occupying Somali clans. Though Marehan settlers still have effective control of the islands, Bajuni can work for the Marehan as paid labourers. This is an improvement on the period during the 1990s when General Morgan's forces controlled Kismayo and the islands, when the Bajuni were treated by the occupying Somali clans as little more than slave labour. Essentially the plight of the Bajuni is based on the denial of economic access by Somali clans, rather than outright abuse.[/quote]
