MP Mark Lancaster has been honoured for his fight to ban the drug Khat.

The member for Milton Keynes North was praised for his efforts by Milton Keynes Somali Association last week.

Khat is a shrub which contains cathinone, an amphetamine-like stimulant, which is said to cause excitement, loss of appetite and euphoria.

It is widely used by people from the Horn of Africa including Somalia.

Mr Lancaster has spoken numerous times over the past three years in the House of Common asking for the drug to be banned in the UK.

In Milton Keynes, the drug is known to have caused many problems including social and family breakdown and damaged the health of users.

Mr Lancaster was honoured at the MK Somali Association’s inaugral meeting last Thursday night.

Speaking afterwards, he said: “I didn’t expect to receive an award for just doing my job. I continue to be committed to fighting for a ban on khat on behalf of my constituents and the Somali Community.”

Abukar Awaleh, Head of Somali Diaspora UK, added: “I am very impressed with the fantastic work Mark Lancaster is doing for minority communities and we are ever so grateful to him for being the voice to a voiceless community and problem.”

Somalia’s warring parties have all failed to protect Somali children from the fighting or serving in their forces, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. The Islamist insurgent group al-Shabaab has increasingly targeted children for recruitment, forced marriage, and rape, and attacked teachers and schools, Human Rights Watch said.

“For children in Somalia, nowhere is safe,” saidZama Coursen-Neff, deputy children’s rights director at Human Rights Watch. “Al-Shabaab rebels have abducted children from their homes and schools to fight, for rape, and for forced marriage.”

The 104-page report,“No Place for Children: Child Recruitment, Forced Marriage, and Attacks on Schools in Somalia,” details unlawful recruitment and other laws-of-war violations against children by all parties to the conflict in Somalia since 2010. The report is based on over 164 interviews with Somali children, including 21 who had escaped from al-Shabaab forces, as well as parents and teachers who had fled to Kenya.

Human Rights Watch called on all parties to the conflict, involving Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government (TFG) and African Union forces (AMISOM) against al-Shabaab, to release any child soldiers in their ranks, protect children formerly associated with fighting forces, and protect schools, teachers, and students from attack.

Since Somalia’s conflict intensified in 2010 and 2011, al-Shabaab has increasingly forced children, some as young as 10, to join its dwindling ranks. After several weeks of harsh training, al-Shabaab’s child recruits are then sent to the front lines, where some serve as “cannon fodder” to protect adult fighters, Human Rights Watch found. Others have been coerced into becoming suicide bombers.A 15-year-old boy told Human Rights Watch that in 2010, “Out of all my classmates – about 100 boys – only two of us escaped, the rest were killed. The children were cleaned off. The children all died and the bigger soldiers ran away.”

Al-Shabaab has also abducted girls for domestic and front-line service, as well as to be wives to al-Shabaab fighters. Families who try to prevent their children’s recruitment or abduction by al-Shabaab, or children who attempt to escape, face severe consequences and even death.

The TFG military and militias aligned with it are deploying children in their forces despite commitments from Somali officials since late 2010 to end the recruitment and use of children, Human Rights Watch said. To date, the TFG has failed to hold anyone to account for this abuse. It has also detained children perceived to be supporters of al-Shabaab instead of providing them with rehabilitation and protection in accordance with international standards.

“Al-Shabaab’s horrific abuses do not excuse Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government’s use of children as soldiers,” Coursen-Neff said. “The TFG should live up to its commitments to stop recruiting and using children as soldiers, and punish those who do. Governments backing the TFG should make clear that these abuses won’t be tolerated.”

Al-Shabaab’s violations of the laws of war include attacks on schools, teachers, and students, Human Rights Watch said. The armed grouphas deployed its fighters and heavy weapons in schools, often packed with students, and used children as “human shields.” Terrified students described to Human Rights Watch being locked in schools, awaiting often indiscriminate return artillery fire from TFG and African Union forces.

In schools in areas under their control, al-Shabaab officials have recruited children and teachers and imposed their harsh interpretation of Islam on the school curriculum. Students and teachers told Human Rights Watch that al-Shabaab banned English, science, and other subjects, and even killed teachers who resisted. As a result, many schools have shut down, after teachers fled and many children dropped out. Schools that have remained open provide little or no substantive education.

Human Rights Watch also called on the TFG, its allied militias, and the African Union troops to identify schools in areas of their military operations, including outside of Mogadishu, to minimize the risk to them.

International supporters of the TFG, including the United Nations, European Union, African Union, and the United States, have not paid sufficient attention to human rights violations by the government, including recruitment and use of children as soldiers, Human Rights Watch said.

Human Rights Watch urged intergovernmental institutions and governments, including states in the region, to place children’s protection and other human rights concerns high on the agenda when they meet in London to discuss the Somalia crisis on February 23, 2012. They should increase support for human rights monitoring and reporting and use any leverage they have on warring parties to protect children and their secure access to education.

“If world leaders meeting in London want to address Somalia’s future, it’s crucial for them to protect this shattered generation of children from further horror and invest in their education and security,” Coursen-Neff said.

Selected accounts from the report:

My 13-year-old friend was in my class. When al-Shabaab tried to take him to the camp, he said he was the only son of his mother. They said he would be killed before he could even explain. They hit him with a gun butt and forced him out of the class. The teacher intervened and al-Shabaab said he was the one telling the kids not to come. They then shot him in front of our class.
– 15-year-old boy describing a 2010 killing in El Ashabiya.

“Then they took us to fight. It was between al-Shabaab and the TFG. All the young children were taken to the first row of the fighting. I was there. Several of the young children there were killed, including several of my classmates. Out of all my classmates –about 100 boys – only two of us escaped, the rest were killed. The children were cleaned off. The children all died and the bigger soldiers ran away.
– 15-year-old boy recruited by al-Shabaab from his school in Mogadishu in mid-2010.

In mid-2010 al-Shabaab took me from my house. They were controlling the entire neighborhood and locked me in a house. They told me, “We will marry you to our leader.” I was in that house for a month. I was crying day and night. Then I said they should go and ask my father. They released me. I told my mother I didn’t want it. After that I went to live with my grandmother in a different neighborhood controlled by the TFG, Hamer Wayne. After that when they came to our house, they took my two brothers.
– 16-year-old girl from Bondhere, Mogadishu.

I was always worried when they were at school. You always worried when the day ended to see if your boy was recruited or your girl was kidnapped. Every day you get your child back at the end you are thankful. Every day there were incidents reported from the school.
– Mother whose 17-year-old daughter was taken by al-Shabaab during a school tea break in Bakara, Mogadishu.

One day al-Shabaab entered the school and went up to the first floor. They were shooting big guns from the school…. 15 to 20 al-Shabaab entered the first floor and fired. They closed the door and we stayed in the class. We were locked in from 10 or 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. – there was continuous fighting. We heard return fire but it did not hit the school, it hit all around us.

– 18-year-old student from Hawlwadag, Mogadishu describing an incident from October 2010.

Hay’ada u dooda xuquuqda aadanaha ee Human Rights Watch ayaa ku eedaysay dhinacyada iska soo horjeeda ee ku dagaallamaya Soomaaliya inay ku guul darraysteen ilaalinta caruurta oo ay u adeegsadaan iska hor imaadyada hubaysan.

Warbixin ay soo saartay hay’adan ayaa lagu sheegay in xarakada Ashabaab ay xooga saartay sidii ay ugu tababari lahayd caruurta inay kamid noqdaan ciidamadooda, samaynta guur khasab ah,kufsi, weeraro ay ku qaadayso iskuullada iyo macallimiinta waxbara caruurta.

 “Caruurta Soomaaliya ma jirto meel ay ku ammaan galayaan,” Ayuu yiri Zama Coursen-Neff, oo ah ku xigeenka madaxa arrimaha xuquuqda caruurta ee Human Rights Watch .

“Al-Shabaab waxay caruurta ka qafaashaan guryahooda iyo iskuullada si ay u dagaal galiyaan,ama u kufsadaan, iyo khasab inay ku guursadaan.”. Ayuu sii raacshay.

Human Rights Watch ayaa ugu baaqday dhammaan dhinacyada dagaalka Soomaaliya gaar ahaanna Dawlada KMG ah ee Soomaaliya iyo ciidamada AMISOM  ee la dagaallamaya Alshabaab inay fasaxaan wixii caruur ah oo ku jira ciidamada u dagaallamaya, ayna ilaaliyaan caruurta horay uga qayb qaadatay dagaallada, kana ilaaliyaan weerarada iskuulada,macallimiinta iyo ardada.

Human Rights Watch  waxay warbixintooda ku sheegtay inay hayaan warbixino cadaynaya in xarakada Alshabaab ay sii siyaadiyeen caruurta ay ku khasbayaan inay u dagaallamaan iyaga sanadihii 2010ka iyo 2011ka ,kuwaasoo qaarkood jira 10 sano oo kaliya. Waxaana la marsiiyaa tababar aad u adag iyagoo todobaadyo kadibna lagu biiriyo ciidamada safka hore uga dagaallama Alshabaab, halka qaarkoodna ay ka qayb qaataan qaraxyada is miidaaminta ah.

Wiil 15 jir ah oo kamid ah dadka ay Human Rights Watch waraysatay oo kasoo baxsaday Alshabaab ayaa sheegay in dhammaan ardadii ay isku fasalka ahaayeen ay kaxaysteen Alshabaab si ay ugu dagaallamaan isuguna uu kamid ahaa, waxaana uu tilmaamay inay gaarayeen 100 wiil kuwaasoo dhammaantood ku dhintay dagaal ay Shabaab la gashay ciidamada kasoo horjeeda.

Wiilkan yar ayaa sheegay inuu kaligi kasoo baxsaday caruurtii halka kuwii waawaynaa ee dagaalka galinayayna ay goobta ka baxsadeen markii caruurtii la laayay.

Sida ku qoran warbixinta Human Rights Watch Al-Shabaab waxay kaloo qafaasheen gabdho yaryar kuwaasoo loo adeegsado in u shaqeeyaan ciidamada amaba ay xaasas u noqdaan ciidamada Shabaabka.Qoysaska isku daya inay caruurta ka hor istaagaan ku biiritaanka Alshabaab waxay la kulmaan khatar wayn mararka qaarna waaba la dilaa.

Dhanka DKMG ah ee Soomaaliya ayaa Human Rights Watch ay sheegtay inaysan wali joogsan qaadashada caruurta yaryar ee ku biiraya ciidanka dawlada amaba maleeshiyooyinka taageersan, walow ay jirto in dawlada Soomaaliya ay gashay ballanqaad ay ku joojinayso qorashada caruurta yaryar ee ciidanka dawlada ku biiriya 2010kii.

Dawlada Soomaaliyana waxay ku guul darraysatay inay la xisaabtanto dadka masuulka ka ah ku tumushada xuquuqda caruurta oo ay mamnuuc tahay in loo adeegsado iska hor imaadyada hubaysan ama inay kamid noqdaan ciidanka.

 “Tacadiyada ay Alshabaab caruurta ku hayaan u noqon mayso marmarsiiyo DKMG ah ee Soomaaliya oo u isticmaasha caruurta inay askar u noqdaan,” Ayuu yiri Coursen-Neff  oo ka tirsan Human Rights Watch.

“Dawlada Soomaaliya waa inay kasoo baxdaa ballanqaadkeedii ahaa inay joojisay in loo qorto caruurta yaryar askar ahaan, ciqaabna waa in la marsiiyaa kuwa ka dambeeya falalkaas, iyadoo dawlada KMG ah ay cadaynayso inaysan u dulqaadan doonin dhaqamada noocaas ah.”

Human Rights Watch ayaa ka doonaysa DKMG ah iyo maleeshiyaadka taageera iyo ciidamada midowga Afrika inay ogaadaan goobaha ay ku yaallaan iskuullada ee caasimada Muqdisho iyo meelaha ka baxsanba ee ay ka fulinayaan hawlgallada si loo yareeyo khatarta soo gaaraysa iskuullada.

Dhamaan beesha caalamka ee caawisa DKMG ah ee Soomaaliya gaar ahaana qaramada midoobay,midowga Afrika,midowga Yurub iyo Maraykanka ayay Human Rights Watch ku dhaliishay inaysan xil iska saarin xadgudubyada ka dhanka ah xuquuqda aadanaha ee ay gaysato dawlada Soomaaliya, gaar ahaana qorashada caruurta yaryar ee ku biiraya ciidanka.

Waxay kaloo Human Rights Watch  ugu baaqday inay xuquuqda caruurta ilaaliyaan maamulada kale ee ka jira dalka haday yihiin heer gobol iyo heer degmoba.

Sidoo kalana waxay ugu baaqday madaxda aduunka ee isugu imaanaysa shirka London inay xil iska saaraan ilaalinta iyo badbaadinta caruurta Soomaalida.

 “Madaxda aduunka ee isugu imaanaynaysa shirka London, hadii ay doonayaan inay wax ka qabtaan mustaqbalka Soomaaliya,waxaa muhiim ah inay ilaaliyaan jiilka caruurta ah ee hada soo kacaya ee baaba’san, kuwaasoo u baahan in laga maalgaliyo dhanka waxbarashada iyo ammaanka”.Ayuu lagu yiri warbixinta Human Rights Watch.

Warbixinta ay maanta soo saartay Human Rights Watch oo si wanaagsan u iftiimisay tacadiyada iyo xadgudubka lagu hayo caruurta Soomaaliyeed oo la sheegay in lagu saleeyay xog laga soo aruuriyay gudaha Soomaaliya ayaa muujinaysa in caruurtu ay yihiin kuwa saamaynta ugu badan ay ku yeelatay falalka naxariis darrada ah ee kooxaha isku haya Soomaaliya ay la beegsadaan shacabka aan waxba galabsan

Sheekh Mukhtaar Rooboow Cali (Abuu-Mansuur) oo ka mid ah saraakiisha sarsare ee Xarakada Al-shabaab ayaa sheegay inay iska difaaci doonaan weerarrada kaga soo fool leh ciidamada Itoobiya iyo kuwa dalka Kenya oo uu sheegay inay kusoo xadgudbeen ciidda Soomaaliya.

Sheekh Abuu-Mansuur ayaa sidoo kale sheegay inay dagaal la galayaan beesha caalamka oo uu ku eedeeyay inay mas’uul ka tahay dhibaatada ka jirta dalka, mar uu la hadlayay ciidammo tababar loogu soo xiray Baydhabo.

“Waxaad ku talogashaan inaan ka hortagaysaan ciidamada Itoobiya oo soo duulay, waxaad badisaan adkaarta waxaadna ku talogashaan inaad ku jirtaan jihaad adag,” ayuu Sheekh Abuu-Mansuur u sheegay ciidamadii uu la hadlayay.

Afhayeenkii hore ee Al-shabaab wuxuu sheegay in ciidamadan iyo gaadiid dagaal oo ay wataan ay aadayaan gobolka Gedo si ay ula dagaalamaan ciidamada Itoobiya oo dhaqdhaqaaqyo ciidan kawada gobolkaas.

“Dagaalka waxaan sidoo kale kula jirnaa beesha caalamka oo mas’uul ka ah in lasoo galo dalkeena. Mujaahidiintu waa inay dhexda u xirtaan sidii ay uga hortagi lahayeen waxa loogu yeero beesha caalamka,” ayuu hadalkiisa raaciyay.

Xarakada Al-shabaab oo ka talisa dhul ballaaran oo Soomaaliya ku yaalla ayaa waxaa ku furan aagag badan oo dagaal, waxaana hadalka Abuu-Mansuur uu kusoo beegmayaa xilli ay ciidamada Itoobiya iyo kuwa Kenya doonayaan inay qabsadaan dhulka ku jira gacanta Al-shabaab oo dhawaan la midowday Al-Qaacida.

Culumaa’udiinka Ahlu Sunna ee gobollada koonfureed ee Soomaaliya ayaa sheegay in aysan jirin cid u matalaysa shirka Soomaalida uga furmaya magaalada London ee xarunta dalka Britain dabayaaqada bishan.

Iyagoo shir jaraa’id ku qabtay hotelka Grand Royal ee magaalada Nairobi ayaa culimadan oo u badnaa kuwa ka dagaallama gobolka Gedo ay sheegeen inaysan aqbalayn ergada loo xulay Ahlu Sunna ee lagu qoray liiska dadka u matalaya shirkaas.

Xoghayaha arrimaha dibada ee Ahlu Sunna Waljamaaca ee koonfurta Soomaaliya Sheekh Xasan Maxamuud Garaad oo warbaahinta la hadlay ayaa sheegay in beesha caalamku sida ay u wajahayso dhibaatada Soomaaliya ay tahay mid ay dhaliilsanyihiin.

“Waxaan u sheegaynaa wadamada aduunka in Ahlu Sunnada koonfurta Soomaaliya aysan ogolayn in magacooda la isticmaalo, oo dad aan iyaga matalin la yiraahdo waa Ahlu Sunna”. Ayuu yiri Sheekh Xasan.

“Markii la wada ogaaday in Ahlu Sunna ay yihiin dadka kaliya ee nadiifka ah ee aan dhib ka gaysan Soomaaliya ayaa qof walba uu qaatay magaca Ahlu Sunna , xataa qabqablayaashii dagaalka waxay sheegteen Ahlu Sunna”.Ayuu sii raacshay Sheekh Xassan oo tilmaamay in Ahlu Sunna lagu noqdo oo kaliya caqiidada iyo inaad la dagaallanto cadawga Alshabaab sida hadalka uu u dhigay.

Gudoomiyaha culumaa’udiinka Ahlu Sunna Waljamaaca ee gobollada koonfureed Sheekh Cayduruus Sayid Axmed ayaa isna dhankiisa dhaliilay qaabka xafiiska qaramada midoobay u qaabilsan Soomaaliya ay ula macaamilaan ururka Ahlu Sunna oo uu sheegay in ay la hadlaan dad aan ururkooda ka tirsanayn balse sita magaca Ahlu Sunna.

“Markii hore Ahlu Sunna waxay ahayd dad shacab oo aan hubaysnayn balse markii ay arkeen cadawga dalka ku soo duulay oo u soo dhigtay diintii ayay bilaabeen halganka ay dalka ku xoraynayaan”. Ayuu yiri Sheekh Cayduruus.

“Waxaan ugu baaqaynaa beesha caalamka hadii ay rabto xalka Soomaaliya, waa inay lasoo xiriiraan dadka ay taladu ka go’do ee matala Ahlu Sunna”. Ayuu sii raacshay.

Culumaa’udiinka Ahlu Sunna oo si wayn uga cabtay qaabka ay wadamada daneeya arrimaha Soomaaliya u wajahayaan ururkooda ayaa ugu dambayntii ku baaqay in arrintaas laga fiirsado, oo aan loo yeeran dad aan ka tirsanayn ururkooda.

Waxaana ay hadalkooda ku soo gunaanadeen inay taageersanyihiin dawlada KMG ah ee Soomaaliya, balse ay diidanyihiin in si xun loo isticmaalo magaca Ahlu Sunna.

Jermaine Grant to appear before Mombasa court in case highlighting fears Somalia becoming training ground for terrorists.

A British man charged with possessing explosives is to go on trial in Kenya in a case highlighting fears that Somalia may become a new training ground for terrorists under the Islamist rebels al-Shabaab.

Jermaine Grant’s trial in Mombasa opens on Monday three days before Britain hosts a conference in London to formulate an fresh international approach to the crisis in Somalia, where al-Shabaab is fighting African Union peacekeepers, as well as Somali, Kenyan and Ethiopian forces.

Grant, 29, from Newham, east London, was arrested with three others in Mombasa in December and charged with possessing explosives and planning to use them in an attack in Kenya.

Kenyan police said he had also been questioned about possible links with al-Shabaab, which has already carried out deadly attacks in Kenya and Uganda.

Britain considers Somalia a direct threat to its own security, partly because of the presence of British nationals among the militants. The formalisation of an alliance between al-Shabaab and al-Qaida this month may signal a greater danger, although many analysts say both have been weakened and may be seeking to prop each other up.

Al-Qaida has been struggling since Osama bin Laden was killed in a US raid in Pakistan last May. Al-Shabaab has also lost popular support in Somalia because it carries out beheadings, amputations and beatings and because it prevented people from leaving its territory to seek aid during last years famine.

Grant, Warda Breik Islam, who he married just days before his arrest, Fouad Abubakar Manswab and Frank Ngala have been charged with possessing bomb-making materials.

They pleaded not guilty in a court appearance on 13 January. The trial was adjourned to allow more time for scientific analysis of the materials seized during the arrests.

Grant has also been charged separately by a Nairobi court in relation to an incident near the Kenyan-Somali border in 2008.

The prosecution in that case says he was detained by Kenyan police but escaped when suspected al-Shabaab rebels attacked the Dadajabula police station and stole weapons. He has been charged with multiple counts of robbery with violence as well.

“There will be separate trial for those charges and we don’t know when yet,” said Jacob Ondari, the prosecutor for the Mombasa case. Media reports in Kenya say Grant was arrested with two others in 2008 while trying to sneak into Somalia disguised as women.

Security sources in Nairobi say that when he was detained in December, Grant had plans for hotels and restaurants in the Kenyan capital, which has been on high alert since troops crossed the border into Somalia last October.

Kenya says it was forced to intervene after a series of cross-border raids and kidnappings, blamed by officials on al-Shabaab. The group has threatened to retaliate with attacks in Kenya.

In a report published in February, the Royal United Services Institute (Rusi) said Britons make up about 25% of the 200 or so foreign fighters believed to have joined al-Shabaab, and that these overseas fighters could herald a new wave of international terrorism.

The thinktank said insurgencies and wars in Africa and elsewhere increasingly provide training grounds for individuals who would become terrorists, spawning a kind of terrorist tourism for “lone wolves” who have been radicalised by material on the internet.

Rusi warned that the return of self-radicalised fighters to Britain would coincide with a steady release from prison of people convicted of terrorist offences over the last decade. It also warned of the radicalisation of young Britons inside some of the country’s prisons.

The Sunday Times has said that Grant was radicalised when previously held for non-terrorist-related offences in Feltham young offenders institution in London. The paper quoted his mother as saying he converted to Islam while in Feltham.

Madaxda kala duwan ee Soomaalida ayaa ku heshiiyay hannaan cusub oo ay yeelanayso dowladda la dhisayo marka uu xilliga KMG ah dhammaado. Hannaankan ayaa waxaa qayb ka ah baarlamaan cusub iyo xukuumad cusub oo bedelaysa midda hadda jirta.

Dowladda hadda jirta oo taageero ka hesha beesha caalamka ayaa waxaa la dagay musuqmaasuq aan xad lahayn iyo dagaallo uu dhiig badan ku daatay oo ay la gashay Al-shabaab, wuxuuna xilligeedu ku eg-yahay bisha Ogoosto ee sannadkan.

Madaxweynaha Soomaaliya, madaxweyne goboleedyada Puntland iyo Galmudug iyo hoggaamiyaha Ahlusunna oo gacan-saar la leh dowladda KMG ah ayaa saxiixay heshiiskan oo ay maalgelisay Qaramada Midoobay.

Heshiiskan ayaa wuxuu ku qotomaa in Soomaaliya loo dhiso dowlad baarlamaani ah, waxaana Puntland iyo Galmudug loo aqoonsaday maamul-goboleedyo federaali ah oo Soomaaliya ka jira.

Baarlamaanka cusub ayaa wuxuu ka koobnaan doonaa 225-xildhibaan, kuwaasoo 30% ay noqonayaan haween – waxaana soo magacaabaya hoggaamiyeyaasha beelaha Soomaalida, waxaana heshiiskan uu ka dhashay shir saddex maalmood ka socday Garoowe.

Heshiiskan ayaa wuxuu ugu dambeeyaa dhowr iyo toban shir oo ahaa isku day lagu doonayay in lagu xasiliyo Soomaaliya oo ay dagaallo sokeeye ka socdeen in ka badan labaatan sano.

Xarakada Al-shabaab oo kasoo horjeeda dowladda Soomaaliya, dagaalna kula jirta ciidamada AMISOM, kuwa Itoobiya iyo kuwa Kenya ayaa heshiiskaas mucaaradday iyagoo ku tilmaamay heshiis lagu burburinayo shareecada Islaamka.

“Heshiiska waa mid carqalad ah, maxaa yeelay waa qorshe ay beesha caalamku ku doonayso inay Soomaaliya dib ugu celiso gumeysi,” ayuu yiri Sheekh Cali Dheere oo ah afhayeenka Al-shabaab oo todobaad ka hor ku dhawaaqday inay ku biirtay Al-Qaacida.

“Mujaahidiintu ma aqbalayaan shirkan iyo kuwa la midka ah, waana ka hortagaynaa innagoo kaashanayna Alle, dagaalkana innaga ayaa ku guuleysan doonna,” ayuu ku yiri Sheekh Cali Dheere shir jaraa’id oo uu shalay qabtay.

Heshiiska ay madaxda Soomaalidu kala saxiixdeen wuxuu ogolaanayaa in aqal sare loo sameeyo Soomaaliya markii ugu horreysay, kaasoo ka koobnaan doona 54-xubnood oo ka imaanaya 18-ka gobol ee Soomaaliya, waana xubnaha yeelanaya go’aanka ugu dambeeya ee arrin laga gaaro.

Qodobbada heshiiskan ayaa waxaa ka mid ah in la helo baarlamaan federaali ah oo ay xubno ka yihiin shaqsiyaad aqoon leh, daacad ah, bulshada Soomaaliyeedna u dhex leh sumcad.

Sidoo kale, qodobbada waxaa ka mid ah in dastuurka cusub uu noqdo mid xuquuqda qof walba oo Soomaali ah ilaalinaya, dalkana ku hagaya dariiq wanaagsan oo looga bixi karo dhibaatada muddada soo jiitamaysay.

Dastuurka cusub ayaa waxaa ansixin doona 1,000 xubnood oo lasoo xulay, kuwaas oo go’aanka kama dambeysta ah gaaraya, waxaana dastuurkan la doonayaa in la dhameystiro sida lagu sheegay heshiiska inta aan la gaarin bisha Ogoosto ee sannadkan.

Heshiiska ay madaxda dowladdu kala saxiixdeen ayaa waxaa la horgeyn doonaa shirka London ka dhacaya maalinta Khamiist ah, si loo tuso madaxda ka qaybgalaya shirka ee ka socda beesha caalamka.

Soomaaliya muddo dheer kama jirin dowlad shaqeysa, waxaana dowladda DKMG ah ee hadda jirta gacan siinaya 10,000 oo askari oo ku shaqeynaya magaca Midowga Afrika, kuwaasoo ka socda dalalka Uganda, Burundi iyo Jabuuti.
