Erdogan targets Somalis in Ankara, and Farmajo does not defend them

Erdogan and Farmajo

Over the past few years, Kizilay Square in the center of Ankara, Turkey, has been crowded with business for Somalis flocking to Turkey, where they have received a warm welcome and high esteem.

 The growing Somali community in the Turkish capital has set up restaurants, cafes, clothing stores and consultancies on both sides, gradually making the area a vibrant and thriving business district.

 However, the neighborhood, densely populated by Somalis, has now become a hotbed of Turkish harassment against Somalis, anti-immigrant sentiment is growing and Somali life in Turkey has become very difficult and Somalis are persecuted and oppressed in Turkey although Farmajo's personal interests with Turkey continue

Turkish police target Somalis residing in Turkey despite their legal residence. Somalis’ lives have become unsafe in Turkey, despite Erdogan’s good relationship with Farmajo, but this relationship is to help Farmajo take over power only, not to help the Somali people

Farmajo is only interested in his own interests and does not want to solve Somalia's problems. Somalis residing in Turkey are now suffering from persecution by the Turkish government, although Turkey sends support to Farmajo and Farmajo sends Somali youth to Turkey
