Did you know? 🇸🇴🌱🫑🚜🥦
With just 3 greenhouses and 3,600 cucumber plants, producing a minimum of 5 kg per plant, you can harvest 18,000 kg of cucumbers per season.
At an average farm gate price of $0.50 per kg, that’s 18,000 kg × $0.50 = $9,000 per season, and a season lasts only 4 months. This means you can harvest 3 times per year.
Each greenhouse costs about $5,500 .
All you need is land and access to water. Yet, every month, millions of dollars leave the country to pay for vegetables that can be grown right here at home.
Farming is not just food security it’s an economic opportunity, a source of jobs, and a path toward reducing imports.
Today, the world is well aware of who #Omar Artan is. He’s making headlines on media outlets everywhere. You’ve already earned the title of Africa’s best referee, and I truly hope you’ll soon be recognized as the best referee in the world. Keep pushing forward and stay resilient!
Dire Dawa has been adorned with a beauty that matches its long-standing history of urbanism, its magnificent centuries-old culture, and its hospitable people. The corridor development has made the city exceptionally beautiful and convenient, seamlessly integrating its historical heritage with modern urban infrastructure to make it a premier destination.

أينما حلّ أهل الصومال، تألّقت حلقات تحفيظ القرآن.
رأيتُهم في مدينة مينيابولس بولاية مينيسوتا، وفي مدينة سان دييغو بولاية كاليفورنيا، وفي عددٍ من البلدان سواهما، فرأيتُ الحرص المُعجِب، والاهتمام المُطرِب، والمُخرجات المُبهِجة.
هذا فتى من فتيانهم -بارك الله له- يؤمّ قومه في أمريكا.
A man was sentenced to 7 years in prison for stealing millions of money🥹💔
Two years into his sentence, he received a letter from his father:
“My dear son, you’ve left me in old age and sickness. The planting season has arrived, and I have no one to help me plow the field and plant maize. I wish you were here to help me. God willing, we shall meet again.”
The son replied:
“Dear father, please don’t dig in the field for now. That’s where I buried all the money I stole. Wait until I’m released.”
As all prisoner letters are read by the prison guards, the next morning, over 100 prison officers showed up at the father’s farm and dug every inch of it — but they found nothing.
The son later wrote back:
“Dear Dad, I hope you enjoyed the help I sent you. You can now go ahead and plant your maize.”
Pleased to receive yesterday my dear brother Mr Hassan Aden Hassan, Honorary Consul of the Republic of Djibouti to the Republic of Rwanda and had fruitful discussions on bilateral issues between the two brotherly countries.

Exciting times are ahead!
My new book will be out in October 2025. It lists over 2500 species/scientific names, over 5700 vernacular names, and a brief biographical sketches of the plant collectors starting from the beginning of the 20th century.
@hzomlot This is clear genocide, and it's alarming that the world is watching without taking action. It's troubling that some Western countries, like the USA and UK, continue to support Israel. Justice will prevail one day, and Palestine will rise again.
VIDEO: #Puntland Maritime Police Force (PMPF) has seized a vessel allegedly carrying weapons near Bareeda, in the Ras Caseyr region.
Despite no official statement from Puntland authorities, local sources claim the ship was flying the Turkish flag and was allegedly transporting weapons destined for #Mogadishu. #Somalia
It prompts us to question the current status and deployment of the navy that received training from the Eritrean and Turkish governments. As of now, it appears there is yet to be visible engagement from the Somali navy in operations.
The recent interception of weapons intended for the #Somalia government at a port in the Red Sea, along with actions taken by troops from Puntland state, raises important concerns about governance in the region.

The family of the former president has announced the passing on of the former president, Muhammadu Buhari, this afternoon in a clinic in London.
May Allah accept him in Aljannatul Firdaus, Amin.
In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.
My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.
I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
@foziaaosman Is this really the capital city of Djibouti? I’m concerned about whether the city has an active mayor and a functioning Municipality. It’s disheartening to think about the implications this may have for the sanitation and health safety of the people living there. Sad
@akin_adesina@sidiouldtah@AfDB_Group Congratulations, Mr. President. You truly made a significant impact during your time as President of @AfDB_Group. Your dedication and achievements have greatly influenced our continent, and I appreciate all your hard work. I wish you a joyful and successful future ahead.
