Somalis should be encouraged to go back and build their own country

Kenyans,

Those who trust in Allah, like the Somalis, are like mount Kilimanjaro which cannot be moved by the sea. The Lord or Allah will always be behind them from now and forever. Allah will always do good to the Muslims who abides with him. So I do not see the point why these true Somali believers would have the fear of going back to their mother land and build Mogadishu from its ruins.

Let Kenyans help the Somalis to go back to their home country. Life can not be build on immigrants who are just waiting, that one day, they will again vanish and go. Who will fill the vacuum they will leave by then?.

Somalis never wanted Said Barre. The man is already dead, I mean dead like DEAD, completely dead, not breathing anymore. So there should be no fear. Kenya will never be safe with a neighbor like Somalia today. It does not matter how many guns, or tanks we buy , our security is already compromised. Let us be realistic, I hope the Somali brothers will not take this as a bad advice: I do think that a wise man once said these words: “He who corrects s a scoffer gets himself abuse, and he who reproves a wicked man incurs injury”. But if you reprove a wise man, he will love you. I hope Somali brothers are not scoffers neither are they wicked. SO JUST TAKE THIS MY ADVICE AS A WISE MAN WOULD DO.

Hatred is bad and it stirs strife, but love covers all offences. But a rod is for the back of him who lacks sense. Just as Saitoti did to the demonstrators who did support an outlawed creature from Jamaica. Kenyans will not allow Somali immigrants to dominate their country economically or politically or even religiously. We can not allow aliens to start to dictate our destiny. Kenya has her own problems, infact, there are just more than enough to handle, and bringing more will just make our heads to crack for nothing.

Most of the immigrant Somalis now in Kenya think of money, not as a means, but as an end, the final destination. These people have even forgotten that their country they left behind really needs them. Somalia will not settle or grow without them. Money is not helium gas, it is not like leaves on eucalyptus trees. Soon we will be seeing in our capital city NAIROBI signs written like this: YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE???: Since all of us hasve a different meaning of what money means and NO two or three of us agree on a meaning, I think it is very risky having pirates money infiltrating our streets. If this is not stopped guys, in future, the pirates money will be used on even presidential or parliamentarian elections to buy votes, or buy ways for their favorites to take strategic positions in the government. Money, if not controlled, is a real deadly weapon, which should be looked into very carefully.

The Kenyan government, East African Community plus UN member states, should start to look into how Somalia refugees can be re settled into their own country. Somalis do not have their own Moses who will lead them through Cannan as the Jews did from Egypt some years ago. We have to provide them with another Moses.

This thing of staying in Kenya at their leisure has already proved to be a very big burden to us. We have pains, orphans, wounds, widows and injuries still from the US Nairobi embassy bombing, and we are not yet ready to forget those lives lost during the terrorist attack on our soil. 1998 is not all that so far away, and seeing this month when people carrying terrorist flags and supporting terror into our town can not just be forgiven that simple. So Somalis, Somalis, please start to buy sandukus and pack. Mogadishu is not that far away from Nairobi. UN will be your Moses to lead you back to Mogadishu.

    Mr Nyandoto.

    In all fairness, list you forget, Kenya is a neighbour of 5 countries –

    Sudan, Somali, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda respectively.

    Hence, there is no way one would deny those countries the role they play in region, in terms of Geopolitics. These are facts that as a country we need to deal with. We can’t live in a vacuum, otherwise those countries might one day turn against us, and drive us towards Indian ocean.

    Whatever happens in those countries, shall always affect us in our country in one way or the other.

    We are bound to react and should act accordingly.

    If history serves me right, apart from Tanzania, those countries mentioned above have seen serious civil wars and hunger in the region. And it never stops.

    My contest has always been to turn those tragedies happening around Kenya as an opportunity to enhance our strategic interest.

    Foreign affairs, Commerce affairs, and Immigration are lacking in this regard. They need to think and think really hard.

    Those people are our neighbours whether we like it or not. And we ought to accommodate them accordingly.

    You simply do not the know about Somalis. Somalis are not only in Kenya, we have overtaken the whole world with our trust and coperation. and piracy have only started in late 2006. Somalis were rich and wealthy before that. and their wealth grows because you guys drink bear as we work 24 hourse aday. and so we never be the same.

    You are simply a frustrated doctor. and if you cant beat Somalis join them.
