The worst thing I have ever experienced

Seventy year old Habibi* came to Kenya as one of 72 people who traveled together from Somalia. That was almost her entire village, she says, and was made up of her family and friends. Her son had heard of Dadaab and told them about it years ago, he had said that they could run to it because of the fighting. Habibi’s husband had declined, opting to stay in Somalia longer.

Back home they were farmers and pastoralists, growing sorghum, and keeping cows, goats and sheep. They left Somalia because of drought, came here with her friends and neighbours, children and grandchildren. She describes the journey to Dadaab as the ‘worst thing she has ever experienced’.
“We were attacked by strange men, they looted all our belongings, women were raped and men were beaten, but we thank God nobody died,”. Habibi was also raped, and manages to talk about it openly, her anger and confusion still evident. “Our husbands and sons were all there to see it happen to us, it was very bad!”
She is still in the influx area of Dagahaley camp, with only 16 other friends and relatives. The others settled in another camp, Hagadera. One of her relatives gave up his tent for her so she could have shelter with her four grandchildren. All they had to eat on the way was maize, and more maize as they traveled the long journey to Dadaab.
“I do not want to go back to Somalia, all our problems are still there! I am here with nothing, but I would rather stay here. Life here is hard, the food they give us is little because now we have to wait for registration, but I would rather stay here than go back,” she said.

Well....maybe she was a hot ayeeyo.
I think, its a compliment to the woman-kind--their allurement is forever.

I personally dont believe her, it is the same thing that all the qaxootis in the west claimed.

hutu
how can she die. She was probably bothered with little foot toes mascarading as gu.s. I am sure she was able to read dua and curse them while they were vigorously working it and thinking they were doing damage.

I rather die then see any of my family members getting sexually abused, but the guys were probably beaten to death to accept such a fate.

Either that or her story is not true or exaggerated. I'm leaning towards the latter.AhmedBoqor wrote:I rather die then see any of my family members getting sexually abused, but the guys were probably beaten to death to accept such a fate.

Men from all walks of life have witnessed their mother/sister/spouse/relative being raped in front of them. Why would the story be false if the group happened to be SomalisCinque Mtume wrote:

Ilaahay ha u fududeeyo ayadu iyo caruuraheeda. Its very uncommon to hear such a story.
