Somali Gov accuses WPF of undermining country agriculture industry

[smooth]

Officially the first government to have the courage to speak out against it, this is the classic colonial technique that was used to destroy much of Africa and kill its population through famine, especially country like Zimbabwe, John perkins in his book "economic hitman" illustrates the other techniques, no wonder why the Ethiopian and her lackeys are trying so hard to undermine her.

They can engineer famine at will once the farmers have been taken out of business by their free AID which they bring during harvest, then when the farmers are gone, they stop bringing the aid, hence sudden nationwide famine, this is great development.

Somali govt accuses WFP of undermining country's agriculture industry

MOGADISHU (HOL) – Somalia’s government has accused the United Nations’ World Food Programme (WFP) of coinciding its food aid distributions to the country’s harvest period; a scenario which it says discourages farmers from producing crops and degrades local crops’ value.

Despite earlier similar accusations by Al-Shabab, it’s the first time that Somalia’s government has publicly criticized the UN agency’s aid operation which supports refugees and poor people in the horn of Africa nation.


Somalia’s deputy minister of agriculture said that WFP’s current operation setting continues to undercut Somalia’s farming industry and ‘depressed’ farmers.

“They are making serious mistakes – we don’t want to see them coinciding their food distributions to the time our farmers are harvesting crops to sell them.” He told Voice of America’s Somali service Tuesday.

He called for the agency to purchase the food aid meant for Somalia from the local farmers rather than importing it from other countries, mainly North America to boost the local production.

Agriculture is the most important economic sector for Somalia as it accounts for about 65% of the GDP and employs 65% of the workforce while livestock contributes about 40% to GDP and more than 50% of export earnings. No comment could be reached from WFP on the allegations.

It simple
Tell the agency to bring FOOD only during Disaster,when our Farmers are harvesting buy from them,it will boost their confidence and give them confidence to grow more and more.

Looks like both of you spent the night in the marfish with a bottle together, which explains why your both frothing from the mouth in synch, the article is in opposition to what you claiming, its condemning the aid encouraging the WPF (that also feeds your people that dwell in those dead barren lands your from) to buy food from local farmers, its revolutionary, a first in Somalia, a generator of great revenue, something far beyond your peanut sized brains.

10 Facts About Hunger In Somalia

11 June 2015

Email this content

Here are ten facts that shed light on the hunger situation in Somalia. Please help the World Food Programme (WFP) raise awareness by sharing these important facts on Twitter.

1) Over two decades of conflict have left 1.1 million Somalis displaced in their own country, and almost a million as refugees in neighbouring countries. High food prices, combined with frequent droughts and floods have compounded poverty and continue to threaten livelihoods.  

Tweet


2) Somalia has an estimated population of 12 million. About 82 percent of Somalis are poor across multiple dimensions (health, education, standard of living). Overall, 73 percent of Somalis live on under US$2 per day. 

Tweet


3)  A famine in part of Southern Somalia in 2011 killed a quarter of a million people. This was the first time a famine had been declared in the Horn of Africa region in nearly thirty years. 

Tweet


4) Life expectancy in Somalia is 51 years old, up from 47 in 2001.

Tweet


5) Somalia has chronically high malnutrition rates; one in eight children under five is acutely malnourished. WFP’s nutrition programmes aim to treat and prevent acute malnutrition in young children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers. 

Tweet

6) Right now, close to one million people are in need of emergency food assistance. An additional two million people are struggling to meet their basic food needs and risk falling into a food security and nutrition crisis if they don’t receive sustained humanitarian assistance.   

Tweet

7) Somalia has one of the world’s lowest enrolment rates for primary school‐aged children - 42 percent of children are in school. Of those, only 36 percent are girls. WFP is providing school meals to relieve hunger and boost enrolment rates, particular of girls by providing take-home family rations for girls attending schools to incentivise parents. 

Tweet

8) Young people in Somalia (14 to 29-year-olds) make up 42 percent of the population. The unemployment rate for youth is 67 percent - one of the highest rates in the world. WFP’s Food-for-Training programmes provide vocational training for vulnerable people, equipping them with skills needed to enter the job market.

Tweet


9) Somalia is frequently ranked as one of the worst places to be a woman. In 2014, Somalia came bottom of the global rankings in terms of maternal health, child mortality, education and levels of women's income and political status.

Tweet

10) WFP started operating in Somalia in 1967, focusing on rural agricultural development and school feeding projects. The onset of conflict escalated humanitarian needs and WFP expanded its programmes. In 2015, WFP plans to provide food assistance for relief, nutrition, and social safety net for 1.9 million of the most vulnerable Somalis, despite the security challenges and risk involved.

You can't really blame them. Low human capital+nomadic culture+ dry wasteland + no natural resources+unrecognized country = Hopeless failed nation.

Respect is earned, not given. Unless the government does something worthy, their words means nothing.

Let's hope this government is not as corrupt as we thought it to be.

Yes, we have to deal with hungry begging zomalis on the regular that are brain dead like Sahal, who just posts up random things and GI is just xoolo who follow suit. Sahal aljazeera link tells it there are 84,000 reer koonfureed that survive off somaliland so I suggest yall watch what you say.

However, an estimated 84,000 people are internally displaced (IDP)  within its borders and it shelters thousands of refugees from other countries - most notably at least 8,000 from Ethiopia and an influx of more than 9,000 from Yemen after the crisis there this year.

It's 2015 and the effects of somalia's famine still felt in the south today.

Since the famine, malnutrition has decreased, to some extent. Among children under five years old it has fallen from 18% in the 2011 Gu (the rainy season in Somalia, which is the primary cropping season and runs from April to June) to 13% in the 2015 Gu. However, the improvement has not been enough to lift hundreds of thousands of children out of the fear – and the reality – of hunger. The latest data shows that there are as many as 308,000 children who are acutely malnourished, including nearly 56,000 severely malnourished. The statistics translate into this simple fact: At the moment, one in every seven Somali children is malnourished.

Someone should ban these kind of low IQ trolls, the difference between you and sahal post is that your gloating, he is mainly trying to counter your gloating by pointing out this is nation wide and your response is to gloat about human sufferings again? You really are the lowest form of cretin.
