Quick ways to get rich
There are many factors that help a Somali to become rich. He might get rich thanks to commerce, which is a widespread, albeit time-consuming, way to amass a fortune. It may be inherited from father to grandfather. Others may become rich through graft from governments or NGOs. This is due to the weakness of governments and their inability to track these people, as the members of society are always stunned whenever the reputation of a person who was known for his poverty becomes known, and he suddenly becomes rich.
Somali economist Ali Nur explains to Raseef22 that "people who resort to illegal gain receive facilities from government officials, especially officers." The work of the wealthy in Somalia is not compatible with the rich people of the world, due to the circumstances surrounding them. As we mentioned, most of the rich people of Somalia work in trade of all kinds, whether local, regional or international. The merchants distribute their activities locally among the governorates.
According to Nour, southern merchants transport fruits and vegetables to the northern governorates, specifically Hargeis and Bosasso, and do not ship any locally made goods to the south. Regionally, trade is uneven. Somali merchants import coffee and khat from Kenya, and export cows and sugar to it. From Ethiopia, traders import low-quality coffee, potatoes and khat.
Globally, major traders import goods from China, India, the United Arab Emirates and other countries. They also import electronics, building materials, etc. from China.
In addition to the above, the owners of telecommunications and contracting companies are among the rich people in Somalia. In Somalia, there are three telecommunications companies: HORMUD, NATION LINK and TELECOM. The largest of them is the Hormud Company. The researcher in Somali affairs, Abd Ali, says: "Somali can get rich quickly in Somalia by trading in fake or expired goods, low-quality goods or looted from relief agencies."
He accused Farmajo and Fahad Yassin of assassinating their former collaborators and kidnapping and killing them on a daily basis.
He also said that the country has one challenge today, which comes from Farmajo and his associates, including senior Nisa staff, pointing out that all these men are an obstacle to the aspirations of the Somali people and the current elections in the country.
The case of Ikraan, who was abducted by the government, has not yet been resolved, and Farmajo has taken steps to investigate Nisa's alleged involvement in the abduction.
Somalia will improve and share with the world when the politics of the country get out of the hands of farmajo and fahad yasin who have really been politically corrupt for a long time, and the somali people should remove any politician like the two to save their country.
The Juba River has three main tributaries: Webi Giestro, Down Payama Valley, and Doria Valley, which is the meeting point of the Somali border with Abyssinia in the modern era.
The river flows after the town of Dolo, but the descent is slow, and the speed of the river is weak. At the town of Bardera, the strength of the river in the flow increases because of the side extensions of the gorges that connect to the river during the flood. The most important of these tributaries are the Hereik Stream and the Iae Dese Stream, which comes from the hills of the Anfadi region, and its length is about twenty kilometers, and it is one of the most important tributaries of the Juba River due to its abundance of water and its extreme depth, making it suitable for navigation for small ships.
The waters of the Juba River end to the sea (north of the city of Kismayo), and the largest extent of the Juba Valley reaches 250 km.
The Juba River has two floods, one of them in the fall, which is abundant in water, and it starts from April to September, and the average river discharge is between 800 to 1000 cubic meters per second, and the second flood is less than the first, and usually begins with the end of September and October, and the water decreases In late January, February and March, the water in that river seldom dries up.
In the winter, which is the dry season, the river discharge averages between 15-20 cubic meters per second, and we note that the waters of the Juba River are less salty than the waters of the Shabelle River, so most agricultural lands and agricultural expansion projects are consistent with the Juba River.

The Somali people have used the Arabic language because it is the language of the Noble Qur’an and prayer, to communicate with the outside world, to write correspondence, and to keep records for more than a thousand years.
Although the Somali language has not yet been written, it is very advanced and has a large number of words, and the Somali language has great unwritten values that people pass on from mouth to mouth, and they have entrusted it with their memories and hearts, and we can quite easily compare these great manners with the literatures of other nations And any person who has a close contact with the customs of the Somalis in the desert of Somalia will inevitably find that most of the customs have a deep social meaning.
The tribal system played an important role before the establishment of the modern state and the new society, as was the case in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Sudan and other Arab and African nations. The tribe represented a small, sovereign state that would defend itself and conclude treaties, and we can say, without need of fatal details, that the salient feature was that it was democratically governed and that it was in fact a state of prosperity according to the principle that became an old saying or that ((the tribe There is no one who is hungry if everyone is not hungry))

He is fast-moving, very valiant, strong-willed, grows up in courage, courage, generosity and generosity. And his grandfathers are from customs and traditions, and he means to preserve his lineage and teach him his sons to be proud of him.
Somalia and its government have also lost their credibility from the international community, the international support has stopped and the international community has lifted its support for the elections due to the continuous delays, and now the confusion and pressure is being exerted on the Soldiers Committee in Eritrea
Since there is news that young Somalis are smuggled into it without any consent, but they are kidnapped there to fight in it. Farmajo is behind this and denies all the charges against him and is now pressuring the committee to stop the search for the soldiers and not reveal his truth.

The historical developments in Somali societies over the past century have increased the importance of artistic and creative activity, from the emergence of political borders, which divided the land and divided society, in addition to the phenomena of alienation and migration to countries where the Somali was strange in face, hand and tongue.
However, a new phenomenon has recently emerged on the surface of society, which has a severe impact on the Somali artistic and creative circles, provoking a general state of discontent and frustration among hundreds of Somali creators inside and outside the country.
Salt on the wound of creativity
There is no doubt that the emergence of the phenomenon of “disavowing” some of those involved - previously - in the artistic field, of their role and tasks in the creative process, is a new matter that Somali societies have not previously dealt with.
The controversy that engulfed the retired artist Muhammad Saeed, known as “BK”, and Youssef Osman Abdullah, nicknamed “Youssef Shaer”, one of the prominent poets in the Somali literary scene, may be a real indication of the state of mind that is currently under development, given the name of "Youssef Shaer" on the lips of "BK" when he mentioned a group of creative people who retired from art, and "Shaer" went out to deny that he had ever joined the artistic community, and that all his artistic contributions did not exceed two poems, he allowed their performance to one of the artists, while "BK" returned to deny him His disavowal of the middle despite the revelation that there was a third poem sung!
Tahir Muhammad Guled, who is interested in collecting heritage artworks, says, "The Somali artistic community in general, and in Somaliland in particular, was one of the sectors of society that was most affected by the conditions that the country went through. These acrobatic behaviors are very painful on the psychological level for those interested in Somali art, because while they suffer from lack of appreciation in a society whose values have changed, there come among them those who deepen their wound, and even sprinkle salt on a wound they have long endured.”
However, the literary status of singing emerged, stemming from Somali poetry, to be a new poetic art in its own right, added to a series of literary arts that branched off from each other, after each of them took its final form, and found creators who specialize in it and are loyal to it, so that the abundance of production led to transform it into a literary art of its own.
The location of the song in Somali literature.
Literature in the Somali language is called "Sugan" and includes both prose and verse. The prose is divided into story, wisdom, sermon and blink, and modern arts, such as articles and theater, joined it after the Western presence in the country, starting in the nineteenth century. As for the systems, they are divided according to seniority into the “jpi” systems, the “tanto” and “girard” systems, the “branbar” systems for women, the “sherb” systems, the “guru” systems, and the “helo” systems from which the “has” systems, i.e. poems, emerged The singer.
