Here’s what you need to know about #hantavirus: What they are, how they spread, the symptoms, and how to prevent infection
My latest article:
Somalis, especially those who have survived war, famine, and displacement, should not have to endure political dehumanization in the country they now call, and contribute to as, home.

#WARNING ⚠️: Cosmetic procedures such as lip lifts, cheek fillers, skin lightening treatments, and hair transplants are increasing in #Somalia. With unqualified practitioners conducting these services and the absence of a health regulatory authority, doctors warn of serious health implications.
I am deeply concerned by the massive clearing of trees and vegetation around our refugee camps in Garissa and Wajir Counties for wood fuel, a massive deforestation that has been going on for many years.
The unmitigated destruction of the fragile ASAL ecosystem predisposes residents to adverse effects of climate change and goes against our efforts to restore Kenya's degraded landscapes by growing 15 billion trees by the year 2032.
As the agency with the global mandate to manage refugee affairs, UNHCR must urgently provide alternative sources of fuel energy to refugees and host communities to halt the ongoing destruction. @Refugees@RefugeesMedia@RefugeesAfrica@UNHCR_Kenya@Moadow@Citizentvkenya@ntvkenya@KTNNewsKE
SOUTH AFRICAN MINISTER CALLS OUT MUSLIM COUNTRIES WHO SIDE WITH OPPRESSOR
“These are just two Hadiths that suggest that Muslims cannot and should not collaborate with those who oppress others.”
Excellency, @AhmedMoFiqi
You signed an am agreement with the Somaliland that had a security collaboration component.
Dr. Abdirahman Kulmiye, one of the few Somalis with a PhD in fisheries, has been detained by Somaliland for weeks, if not months. They have wrongfully accused him of working for Somalia.
I urge you to intervene for his release because (a) you are aware that he is not employed by the Somali government, and (b) working for the Somali government is not a criminal act.
As a Somali citizen he HAS rights, and it is the government’s responsibility to protect such rights.
Congratulations my brother #Türkiye President-Elect @RTErdogan on your
re-election victory. It’s a true testament to your great leadership. As such, I join billions world-wide who prayed for you & the people of Türkiye towards this success.
I recently ended a #COVID19 talk @rpi w four important questions, which I ask to all of you involved in science, public health, academia, working in/w communities, across different sectors, faith based organisations, international organisations, etc…

The mayor lost it when he saw that gray-haired man in the group 😂 he’s saying look at you! How old are you to be doing this? A lot us in the west are blaming the actions of #Madaale but Somalia is facing real danger from illicit drugs! We need to address the root cause of this problem! There are powerful cartels including politicians who are importing alcohol & drugs that is menacing many cities in Somalia including #Mogadishu. The government especially the lawmakers have a duty to pass laws governing this epidemic before it’s too late!
