Somalia is on the move. It is pushing for foreign investment, and large infrastructure projects are changing the face of its scarred capital city, Mogadishu. These developments could promise better fortunes for Somalis as the country emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic
By Prof. Mohamoud Iman Adan- Keydmedia - Virginia, USA - Clan or tribal characterization is a traditional identity that does not harm anybody or any social entity, physically, mentally and morally.
Salma Abdikarim (Keydmedia) - Clan Identity is a brand name that does no harm to anybody. Confirming it in public or even expressing in writing is as inconsequential matter, just like relating your address; or saying: These fruits belong to mango tree.
By: Dr. Said Liban - Of the numerous international conferences organized to deal with Somalia’s seemingly endless conflict, London conference has attracted by far the highest expectations of Somali people, closely matching that of Djibouti in 2000. But unlike the latter, the former also provoked extraordinary apprehension as to what may transpire from such unexpected, sudden gathering.
Geneva (Keydmedia) - The Frambois detention centre, in Vernier, Switzerland, is a world away from the picture-postcard images normally associated with the country. Soaring Alpine peaks, shimmering lakes, and neat chalets with bright flowers adorning painted wooden window boxes – all have no place here.
Nairobi (Keydmedia) - The Ogaden Somali Community in South Africa has filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC), urging an investigation into the actions of the Ethiopian government against the Ogaden people.

Mr. Mohamud M Uluso - Holding a Somali conference in Garowe, the capital of Puntland State was high praise for the local population and opportunity for all Somalis to engage a genuine national reconciliation. Puntland State duly represents the interests of one sub-clan of one of the 4.5 Somali clan families.
Abdirahman A. Ilmi (Keydmedia) - The TFG establishment is in dare crises and lacks the confidence and credibility of the people. One of the major setbacks that high jacks the good governance of a democratic parliamentary system is none other than the speaker of the house himself. It is unfortunate that the speaker does not know his place and functions in the parliament.
Mr. Mohamud M. Uluso - The secretly funded Azania State project concocted by few powerful leaders of the Kenyan Government in collusion with a shortsighted group of Somali-Kenyan politicians has crippled the political unity and the struggle of the Somali Kenyans for gaining their rights as Kenyan citizens after years of massacre as well as of oppressive and discriminatory treatment.
