Drought in East Africa.

It is the worst drought that east Africa has seen since the 1950's and Somalia got the worst case of all.

prolonged drought, civil war and a mismanaged and corrupt government in Somalia are having a disastrous consequences for the civilians that are caught in midst of it.


For those of you that doesn't know much about Somalia let me give you a brief introduction.

It is A peninsula that is on the tip of the horn of Africa, it has the longest coastal line in Africa. The country has two rivers that are located in the south at the heart of the Agriculture belt. with tropical climate Somalia has several harvest per year.


however, Militant(al-shabaab) that are trying to over trough the government are controlling that area so farmers flee their homes with nothing and now are starving.

It is sad that we(the people of Somalia) are subjected to this kind of life in our own country while god gave us the best land man could ever want. very sad indeed.
