Live from Mogadishu!

[PrinceDaadi]

I have been in xamar for last one week and half, I also visited the set-elite city of " Ceelasha Biyaha", things r much better than i assumed before while life is tough in this part of the world but because of Ramadan people do seem to be happy.

how did u go to Xamar and Ceelasha? What part of Xamar were u in?

[bluelovelady]

That is good news. But are the people in Ceelasha getting food?

[PrinceDaadi]

Shirib: i m staying in Bosnia Neighborhood near K5, you can go to ceelasha via Mogadishu- Afgoi road, u can either drive or take a bus.

Blue: People in Ceelasha are copying well, there is a camp where Alshabab keep the ppl in KM.50 where i heard people r in dire need of food.

daadi,

I know that part, what i was gettin more at was, is their free movement between Al Shabaab area's and TFG?

[bluelovelady]

I am glad to here the Ceelasha is okay considering the circumstances since there is many orphans there. So the Al-Shabaab are still up to no good? That is sad to hear that they are still holding people hostage.

Oh u can move back and forth all day from early morning till 8 pm at night then the traffics become few. many ppl who live ceelasha work in xamar.

whats the situation with al shabaab and the tfg?

whats the situation with al shabaab and the tfg?

It seems neither part is serious abt the matter or they are working for some other groups who are sitting behind the scene. The government has no organisational capacity to run the country or they dont have the will to do it. Alshabab seems not to have a direction.

It was a great day in Mogadishu today, the whole atmosphate was full of joy, Mogadishuvites were very happy to recieve and host Turkish PM and show the world that xamar is not a no go zone as Nairobi based UN aid agencies like to tell the world.

Local people know it is still a long way to go but atleast one happy day is better than none.
