Xarakada Al Shabaab ayaa waxay bilowday inay culeys xoog leh ay dusha ka saarto shacabka ku dhaqan qeybaha kala duwan ee magaaladda Kismayo ee Gobolka Jubbada Hoose.
Xarakada Al Shabaab ayaa waxay sheegtay inaysan dadka ka guuri karin guryahooda oo ku yaalla magaaladda Kismaayo, isla-markaana cid walba oo guuritaan isku daydo ayaa waxay sheegtay inay tallaabo adag ka qaadi doonto.
Madaxa Maamulka Gobolada Jubbooyinka ee Xarakada Al Shabaab Sheekh Abuukar Cali Aadan, ayaa wuxuu shaaca ka qaaday inaysan shacabka ka barakici karin guryahooda oo ku yaalla magaaladda Kismaayo.
Sheekh Abuukar Cali Aadan ayaa wuxuu sheegay in shacabka looga baahan yahay inay muujiyaan feejignaan balaaran, isla-markaana aysan ka barakicin guryahooda, isagoo sheegay inaysan jirin cid hawada ka duqeyneyso magaaladda Kismaayo.
Madaxa Maamulka Gobolada Jubbooyinka ee Xarakada Al Shabaab Sheekh Abuukar Cali Aadan, ayaa wuxuu ugu dambeen uu sheegay inay la-socon doonaan dadka ku dhaqan magaaladda Kismaayo, gaar ahaan dadka isku dayaaya inay magaaladda ka guuraan.
Shacabka ku dhaqan magaaladda Kismaayo ayaa waxaa soo wajahday cabsi xoogan, oo ku aadan hadalka ka soo yeeray Xarakada Al Shabaab ee ka mamnuucaaya inay ka guuraan magaaladda Kismaayo, maadaama ay Dowladda Kenya sheegtay inay Kismaayo ka mid tahay, tobanka magaalo ee ay Kenya duqeyneyso.

Shiikh Xasan Daahir oo inta badan ka meermeeri jiray carab-dhawga qabiilka ayaa shalay meel fagaaraha shacab isugu soo baxay ugu sheegay in beelaha Soomaaliyeed beelo ka mid ah ay ka gaabiyeen Jihaadka ka socda Soomaaliya waa siduu hadalka u dhigaye.

Beelaha Abgaal, Ogaadeen iyo Majeerteen ayuu Shiikh Xasan ku tilmaamay kuwa aan ka qeybqaadan Jihaadka ay kooxdiisu ka wado dalka Soomaaliya.

Shiikha oo fagaare ku yaal deegaanka Calamada ee duleedka magaalada Muqdisho kula hadlay dad ka soo qeybgalay Salaaddii ciidda ee shalay ayaa sheegay sidoo kale ku eedeeyay mas'uuliyiin ka soo jeeda Abgaal inay dalka ku soo hogaamiyeen cadaw waa siduu ku doodaye, waxaana uu arintaas ka yiri; "Cali Mahdi wuxuu ku soo hogaamiyay dalka UNISOM, Cali Geedi iyo Cabdullaahi Yuusufna waxay dalka ku soo hogaamiyeen Itoobiyaa Shiikh Shariifna AMISOM ayuu dalka keenay".

Abgaal ayuu sheegay Shiikh Xasan inay ku badan yihiin marka beelaha la barbardhigo dadka Quraanka Alle xafidsan, wuxuuna ku booriyay in ay ka haraan gaala kalkaalnimada, maadaama sida uu sheegay aysan wannaagsnaeyn in gaalo kalkaal ay taariikhda u gashay.

Si kastoo ay ahaataba waa markii ugu horeysay oo uu Shiikh Xasan si toos ah beelaha Soomaaliyeed u kala sooco waxaana hadda muuqata sida dad badani qabaan in uu xodxodanayo beelaha Soomaaliyeed ee aan weli sida miir la'aanta ah u taageerin al Shabaab.

Qiso Cajiib oo dunida hore uga dhicin qofkii ugu horeeyey ee jidhkiisa la qalajiyo (mummy)
Qiso Cajiiba oo aan hore dunnida casriga uga dhicin
A British man, Alan Billis, has become the first person in 3,000 years to be mummified like an Egyptian pharoah
Allan Bilis, oo ahaa nin TAXI wade ah oo, u dhashay dalka Ingiriiska,mgaalada Torquay. ayaa muddo u xanuusaanayey cudurka sambabada Kansarka. Intii uu xanuunku hayey ayey odhan jiray haddii aan dhinto sida ugu fudud ha la ii aaso, een dhibaato ku jirin, kartoon ha la igu rido beerta danbe ee guriga. Waxa uu arrintaa u sheegayey xaaskiia Jan Billis, oo ay is qabeen tan iyo 1973, ayaa waxaa kale oo uu iyada u sheegay in haddii uu dhinto in uu doonayo in laga dhigo jidhkiisa mummy oo afka qalaad lagu yidhaahdo. Maqaarka jidhkiisa iyo xubnaha kale in lagu rido kiimikooyin, jidhka intiisa kalena lagu duuduubo bandhayj, si bal loo arko in saynis-yahaniintu dib u samayn/aabuuri karaan mummy-ga ugu wanaagsan ( ”best mummies”) sidii lagu sameeyey arhaabta masaarida 3000 kun oo sanno ka hor.
Haddaba intii aanu geeriyoon ayuu arkay khuburo iskugu jira Ingirsii iyo Maraykan oo shaaciyey haddii ay jiraan dad doonaya in marka ay dhintaan jidhkooda la qalajiyo. Waxaana shaaciyey nin ku xeeldheer arrimaha cilmiga kimistariga iyo cilmiga arkaloojiga, oo la yidhaahdo, Stephen Buckley. Ninkan xanuusayanaya, Alan Billis ayaaba yidhi arrintii aad doonaysay halkan ayey ka soo dhawaatay markii uu arkay xayasiiskii qalajinta jidhka. Ninka Alan Billis muu ahayn nin aaminsan wax diina, manuu aaminsanayn in geerida ka dib ay jirto nolol kale. wuxuu aaminsannaa haddii uu qofku dhinto waa sidaa uu u dhintay oo wax ka danbeeyaa aanay haba yaaraatee jirin.
Waa in uu isagu doonayo jidhkiisa in la qalajiyo , oo ka dibna hadhow la dhigo meelaha musiyamka, si ay dadku u daawadaan. Qisadan oo aan dunnida casriga hore u soo marin ayaa lala yaabay sida uu u ogolaaday, goáana uga gaadhay arrintan, qaatay in uu sidaa sameeyo. Waxaanu noqonayaa qofkii ugu horreeyey ee dunnida soo mara ee doonaya in la qalajiyo jidhkiisa ka dibna la dhigo Musiyamka oo loo daawasho tago. Khuburadan oo doonaysa in ay tijaabiyaan waxyaalhihii dawooyinkii ay isticmaali jireen, ahraabtii fircoonada masaaridu, marka ay meydka qalajinayaan. Lama hubo in ay ku guulaysan doonaan iyo in kale balse tijaabadaas ayey ku bilaabeen ninka dhintay ee Inigiriiska ah. Allan Billis.
Allan Billis, markii uu dhintay, oo markaa da´diisu ahayd 61 jiray ayaa isla dhawr saacadood ka dib ay khubaradii iyo saynis-yahantiintii bilaabeen hawshii qalinjita jidhka Allan Billis. Waxaanay sameeyeen in xubnuhihii caloosha ee jidhka dibada u soo wada saareen, Waxaa si dekumentari ahaan ka duubayey Tv. mida ka mida Tv.yada dalka Ingiriiska ugu caansan ee la yidhaahdo Channel 4. Waxaa la moodayey hilib-qalayaal sida ay markii jidhka u kala googaynayeen. Waxa kaliya ee ay ku rebeen ay ahayd Maskaxdii iyo wadnihiisii. (sida ay khubaradan sheegeen in ay raacayaan habkii ay u qalanjin jiree,dhaqankii qoomiyadii fircooniyiinta ee masaarida)
Xubnha jidhka laga soo saary waxbaa lagu duuduubayaa. Jidhka intiisa kale waxaa lagu maydhayaa isbiirto Alcohol, dawo kale, habkii ay masaaridu smayn jirtay ayey sameeyeen, xawaashyo iyo faarad (jajabaka looxaanta) iyagoo uga dhigaya mid disha bakteeriyada. (an anti-bacterial agent)
Haddaba waxaa la isweydiinayaa sidee ayey khubradani ku heleen climiga noocan in habkan loo qalajiyo jidhka, maadaamoo sida la wada ogsoon yahay ayey sir tahay amaa ilaa hadda aan la ogayn dawooyinkii ay ahraabta masaaridu isticmaali jireen. Ilaa hada waa sir lama oga waxyaalah ay isticmaali jireeen wakhtigaas si jidhka loo qalajiyo.
Jidhkii Alan, waxaa lagu dhex riday, barkad yar oo wada biyo milix si ay jidhkiisa waxa ku jria u nuugto muddo 5 wiig. Ka hor inta aan loo qaadan shaybaadhka Sheffield, halkaasoo jidhka muddo 6 lagu qalijin doono. Xaaskiisii Jan Billis ayaa soo booqatay, markii jidhka yaalay goobta, markii ay aragtay jidhkiisii iyo sida laga dhigay ayuu dareen murugo lehi qabtay. 3 bilood markii ay ka soo wareegaty ayey saynis-yahaniintii iyo xeeldheerayaashii, hawshan qalajinta jidhka waday ay sheegeen in hawshi si cajiiba oo wanaagsan u socodto, natiijada ka soo baxaday saddexdii bilood ayaa ah mid positiva
Alan Billis wuxuu geeriyooday horantii bishii jenaweri ee sannadkan aynu ku jirno 2011.

Somalia, as we all know, is kind of a disaster. The country is struggling with a brutal famine, hasn’t had a real government for about 20 years, and has basically lurched from crisis to crisis for decades.
Things have, however, been especially bad in the south of the country over the last few years, because the south is largely controlled by a group of violent Islamists known as al-Shabaab, a group which frequently uses terror tactics against civilians, and has waged a vicious civil war against the country’s would-be central government. Over the last month, things in the region have reached a boiling point, fuelled by a combination of famine and food shortages, a deteriorating security situation, and ever-bolder attacks by both al-Shabaab and Somali pirates.
Kenya, Somalia’s neighbour to the south (see map below), has for a long time been anxious about the destabilising effect Somalia’s anarchic state has been having along the two countries’ shared border, including generating a sprawling refugee camp in Kenya filled with half a million or so Somalis fleeing terrorism and hunger, as well as spill-over violence and al-Shabaab attacks on tourists visiting Kenya.
About three weeks ago, Kenya, finally reaching the end of its patience, decided to take military action in Somalia, and sent an estimated 1 500 troops, together with tanks and helicopters, across the border to pursue al-Shabaab. The stated goal of the invasion was to hunt down the members of the group responsible for the kidnapping and killing of several European tourists who were visiting Kenya, but Kenya has since said that its ultimate goal is to attempt to destroy al-Shabaab’s ability to launch attacks against Kenyan targets.
According to Richard Downie, a fellow and deputy director of the Africa Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, Kenya’s real military objective is to create a buffer zone in Somalia.
“In essence, Kenya wants to keep al-Shabaab at arms’ length from its border. It has already experimented with the idea of carving out a buffer zone inside Somalia. Earlier this year, it backed the formation of an autonomous region called Jubaland, or Azania, providing money and supplies to a hastily cobbled-together local governing authority under the leadership of a former Somali defence minister. This initiative never really got off the ground so this time round Kenya is taking the lead role rather than relying so heavily on local partners.”
The Kenyan invasion sparked a controversy within Somalia’s putative Western-backed government, with Somali president Sheikh Sharif Ahmed opposing the incursion, while Somali prime minister Abdiwelli Mohammed Ali committed the country to working with Kenya to roust out al-Shabaab. Recently, the prime ministers of the two nations signed a joint appeal for international help in dealing with al-Shabaab, but the situation is fragile.
The move has also sparked other tensions – for example, Kenya has tetchily accused Eritrea of supplying arms to al-Shabaab, an accusation that Eritrea shrilly denies. Sudan, which is mired in its own problems, including the recent formation of the independent country of South Sudan, has been watching events with a very jaundiced eye, as have the other nations of the Horn of Africa.
It’s an open question whether or not Kenya will be able to achieve a measure of success against al-Shabaab. Counter-insurgency is a tricky business, as we learned from watching events in Afghanistan and Iraq, and Kenyan troops are not specially trained for this type of warfare. What’s more, military action is costly, and Kenya may not be able to afford a prolonged campaign. The best hope is that Western governments, which recognise al-Shabaab as a terrorist organisation, will provide some kind of help to the campaign against the terrorists.
So what?
So what does this mean for the region? Well, it really depends on the outcome. If Kenya succeeds in working with Somalia’s central government and, perhaps, Western allies to decimate al-Shabaab, that would be excellent news for the whole region. With al-Shabaab gone, Somalia would have a shot at being a real, functional state that could clamp down on piracy and deal more effectively with food issues, and the whole Horn would be much more stable as refugees could head home and borders could calm down.
However, if this is just another failed military jaunt, it could have damaging long-term effects on the entire Horn of Africa. Trust between the nations of the region, already low, would fall to new depths, and conflicts between Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia may be possible. Economic integration, which would vastly improve the region’s economic prospects, would become impossible and more violence would become ever-more likely.
In short, a lot is riding on Kenya’s military. Let’s hope they’re up to the job.

President Mwai Kibaki has reaffirmed the government’s resolve in dealing with the militant group based inside Somalia that has sought to destabilise not just Kenya but the entire Horn of Africa region.
President Kibaki pointed out that the transformation of the African continent will only be achieved through a secure and peaceful environment, adding that Kenya has taken a stand for peace and stability in the region and will not waver in that endeavour.
“This is the only way that we can develop our continent and implement infrastructure projects that are cross border in nature,” President Kibaki said.
The Head of State was speaking on Monday at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre where he officially opened the first ever Africa Congress of Accountants.
President Kibaki emphasised that a lasting solution to the long standing instability in Somalia is not only good for the Horn of Africa region but the entire African continent.
The President said Kenya intends to complete the work and operation that has begun inside Somalia in order to create a strong foundation for the continent’s prosperity.
President Kibaki, at the same time, said Kenya was privileged to have been accorded the honour of hosting the first ever Africa Congress of Accountants which has come soon after the inauguration of the Pan African Federation of Accountants.
“This is an expression of the confidence you have in our country and more specifically in the local accountancy profession led by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya,” President Kibaki said.
The President particularly welcomed the congress noting that it will discuss infrastructure and how it relates to the accounting profession, an issue that has taken the centre stage in Kenya’s development agenda.
Underscoring the importance of infrastructure development in Africa’s economic progress, President Kibaki said its role in the transformation of the continent will be more effective if it is undertaken in a coordinated manner in the context of regional integration.
“World class regional road, telecommunication and rail networks; modernised port facilities and investments in effective power pooling arrangements have the potential to completely change the economic and social landscape of Africa,” President Kibaki said.
The President, however, observed that while Africa has made substantial progress in infrastructure development, there is much more that needs to be done as the continent continues to face a huge financing gap largely because of its inability to mobilise sufficient domestic resources to finance the required investments.
President Kibaki called on the African continent to focus on the potential of its domestic sources of finance to bolster the support from development partners in bridging the financial gap.
On Kenya’s part, the Head of State said the country has been able to mobilise nearly $1billion through Infrastructure Bonds.
He said Kenya has also began engaging the private sector through Public-Private Partnerships in the development of infrastructure, which will go a long way in availing additional resources.
“As our own experience here in Kenya has shown, the domestic potential for financial resources is huge provided that we have the requisite policy and legal environment,” the President said.
Noting that the accounting profession plays a key role not only in infrastructure development but also in the sustainable development of the African continent, the President urged accountants to help both private and public corporations to mobilize resources and advise on financing of infrastructure as well as other projects.
In doing this, President Kibaki said the accountants must always uphold the highest standards of professionalism and integrity in financial reporting, timely production of financial reports, as well as ensuring the accuracy and integrity of financial reports.
Said President Kibaki: “This must be your contribution to the infrastructure sector. This is critical because of the complex nature of projects especially in the roads and energy sectors.”
The President pointed out that the services of accountants are also important in many aspects of public finance management including budgeting, budget execution, procurement and auditing.
In this regard, President Kibaki said through the support of accountants, African governments will be able to ensure efficiency, transparency and accountability in public financial management.
The President, therefore, appealed to those attending the forum to come up with recommendations on how the public sector can retain competent accounting staff.
“I am aware that over the years the public sector has constantly lost good accountants to the private sector,” President Kibaki said.
He commended the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya for hosting the congress and thanked the different sponsors and institutions who played a role in the successful organization of the forum.
Addressing the same forum, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Uhuru Kenyatta said Africa’s dominance in the global economy was being noticed adding that six of the world’s fastest growing economies are from the Sub-Saharan Africa.
He urged African professionals to respond to this scenario by taking their rightful positions in the global arena and thanked professional accountants in Africa for positioning themselves to face the challenge.
The Finance Minister urged other professionals to follow suit and join efforts by African governments to integrate the continent’s economies.
Other speakers included the chairman of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICIPAK) Mr Patrick Mtange, President of the Pan African Federation of Accountants (PAFA) Major General Sebastian Owuoma and the representative of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) Japheth Katto.
