Report:Mandera suffering since border closed in Gedo region

[XimanJaale]

Mandera – Beled Hawa: Kenyan Security Forces sent to patrol the unstable Somali border stopped the trade of commercial commodities and personal belongings from the neighboring district of Beled Hawa to the Kenyan border town of Mandera despite the fact that the town is under control to pro government militias. The move came after North Eastern Police Chief Leo Nyongesa told local media that appropriate security measures had been put in place due to the recent clashes between Somali Forces and Al Shabaab insurgents. Kenyan border guards and military personnel were put on high alert as a result.

Border RegionAmina Abdi, a Kenyan businesswoman, told Somalia Report that all commodities are stranded at the Somalia frontier, including household belongings, food and clothing. She urged the Kenyan government to allow cross border business to return to normal. “We don’t know why the police refused to pass commercial goods from Somalia, it will only worsen the poor livelihoods of our people stricken by drought,” she added.

Food and other commodity prices have risen ever since clashes broke at the border district of Beled Hawa, which shares deep business ties with the remote Kenyan district of Mandera and other surrounding villages. Also provoking this move might be the fact that last week, Kenyan police produced names of 11 Kenyans whom they said are Al Shabaab agents sent to terrorize western interests in the country.

Basically Mandeera cannot buy goods such as food, clothings etc cause they used to buy it from Beledxaawo, and now that the border is closed. The business people of Mandeera cannot buy supplies for their shops. This basically shows us that despite the civil war, other nations depend on Somalia

B/Xaawo one of the biggest commercial cities in South Somalia specially due to Gedo regions vast Barwaaqo landscape

Gedo

ina adeer beledxaawo waxaa ka buuxo business savy people, specially from qaxii, my mother came to beledxaawo in the 90s and she told me it was just a tiny tuulo with cariish here and there, she build herself a little warehouse and imported goods in from Mandheera, with the influx of even more people there was more business opened and more demand, so my mom's warehouse became the main whole seller in the town. since then beledxaawo has boomed and now most people import from Mogadisho not only essentials but washing powder and other city stuff, and then sell to Mandheera in retail price, because the tax in Mombasa port is so high Rer Beledxaawo sell to Mandheera in retail price and still profit, Mandheera became totally economically dependent on Beledxaawo. the other sector of Beledxaawo is the agriculture, back when my mom use to live there, there were few tomato and cucomba farms, she told me they tasted 10 times better than those elsewhere in Somalia, this sector has now grown to be highly competittive with the Kenyan farmers.

^ Yeah B/xaawo is booming. This summer I noticed Baardheere was the business hub for Gedo, it is where all goods and products reach and big lorries are stationed there that come from Kismaayo port. To tell u though all they way in the North like Dollow, Geedweyn, Luuq and B/xaawo to all the way South Garbaharey, Baardheere, Buurdhuubo are booming. Even the villages such as Sarinley, Dhamase, Faxfaxdhuun, Markableey, Busaar, Ceel Cadde, Ceel Gaduud, Tuulo Barwaaqo, Tuulo Amiin etc are expanding vastly. But we Sade need to improve our media, so that more Sade can spend their money in their land than other man's land like Kenya, UAE, Egypt, SAF, Syria etc. Media media media!!

investment is needed, there was a huge Mareexaan population who is looking to reinvest after being uprooted during the civil war. the media is not doing enough to make awareness about the peace in our region, and alot of investment capital is lost to other places like Somaliland/Puntland and outsite Somalia.

Definetly, Beesha Sade needs to quit investing in Abroad and neighbouring countries. Our region has the best potential, vast minerals, fertile soil, vast river's, vast bushes and animals for tourism etc.

dude how is mandeera suffering?

I mean unless you smoke dope you will know most of the displaced folks in Beled Xawo took refugee in Mandeera.

on the other hand its Beled Xawo that benefits from Mandera.

If you claim tot be a business man and you are not permitted to trade who suffers you or your clients?
surely your clients would always get suppliers.

At the moment Beled Xawo is being ransacked by a ragtag militia that takes orders from a scumbag Xabashi.

Obviously you didn't listen to Bushkash Jug Soo dhacay on the BBC who said Beled-Xaawo is the central link for NFD towns.

[The_Patriot]

Voltage maybe Beled xawo is the central link for goods comming from Ethiopia.

But as afar I have ever known it was Dhobley that was the central link of NFD and Somalia(be it Kismaayo or Xamar)

so if the entire border is closed it means that even Dobley is not accessible

That means that they dont get goods from NFD that are esential.

I mean cooking oil, detergents,flour,gas etc come from industries in Kenya.

You are one dumb cagdheer walle

Let me teach you the economy of my region.

Gedo has 4 main cities that link up other villages, tuulos in Gedo. Those are: Baardheere (where goods enter from Kismaayo port) then Baardheere links up with B/Xaawo, Ceelwaaq, Garbahaarey, Buurdhuubo. Then Garbahaarey links up with Luuq Ganaane and then Luuq links up with Dooloow, Geedweyn and all the other towns anf villages in the north of Gedo. Whereas Baardheere links up with all the southern towns and villages in Gedo. B/Xaawo then sells it's goods to Maandera (NFD) and Suufka (k5). There are no vital goods and products that Gedo gets from Ethiopia (seeing that Ethiopia doesn't have a port ).

Also towns like Waajid (NFD) get's it's goods from Ceelwaaq. Only Southern NFD trade with Jubooyinka, and they mainly get their goods directly from Kismaayo and not tiny villages like Dhoobley . But mostly they get it from their own ports such as Mombasa etc.

ximan
ok teach me about dusamareeb

Dude NFD does not need Somalia its the other way round . Thats a fact unless you are marexan and you are free to call Dhobley a village and Beled xawo a city

by the way which town is called Wajid?
What an expert


It is really funny that you all over sudden become an expert in the region. While you just joined in recently.
And it shows how childinsh you are when you have to put through your argument by calling people names.

I mean you look and reason like a teenager.

So you want me to argue like my daddy is bigger than yours


Anyway I guess you have sufficient knowledge to be part of the elites of the SPG, but wait a min you are not cos tabloid readers are banned from it.

Saxib ask Ibrahim about dhusomareeb he is reer mudug.

Also what does me coming recently in this forum got to do with my knowledge of my region (Gedo)??
