Sad day for #Kenya & our global family: 1st anniversary of the #RiversideAttack that took our friends #AbdallaFeisal. We're holding a memorial service in Nairobi to remember their kind spirits. Please join us as we pray for them at 15:48 EAT / 12:48 GMT.
Communities in #Hobyo signed social contracts to foster peaceful coexistence and development of their district through the #Wadajir Framework project facilitated by @CPD_Africa and supported by @stability_fund through the line ministry of Internal Affairs and Local Authorities
The Expanded Hobyo administration block and equipped offices launched today by the Galmudug officials Minister Naima Atosh & DG Warsame Farah will enhance service delivery and strengthen governance since Local administration will now work from their offices.
The launching today of the #Hobyo Health Centre's maternity wing would no doubt go a long in reducing maternal deaths in the ancient coastal city. Ceremony presided over by Galmudug Health Minister Ms. Naima Atosh & MOI DG Warsame Farah, Local administration & community members.
Mashruuca Wadajir wuxu u sahlay maamulka #Hobyo in ay helaan xaafis qalabaysan oo ay howshooda shaqo ku gutaan. Wa miraha laga helay wadashaqaynta bulshada iyo dowladda oo gacan ka helaaya @stability_fund
@qayd2012@CPD_Africa Thank you @qayd2012 for the compliments. As Somalis say, Gacmo Wadajir bay wax ku goyaan! Thanks to the local communities and government for the collective efforts.
We gladly welcome visiting dignitaries to Hobyo. Indeed our governance projects from Tabarwadaag to the current Wadajir project all supported by the @stability_fund & implemented by @CPD_Africa pride themselves as being the eye openers for #Hobyo#Galmudug#HobyoPeaceConference
@qayd2012 In Sha Allah it's our prayers too that other Galmudug districts will get similar initiatives. Balambale and Abudwak also tend to benefit from Wadajir Framework.
Legitimate & responsive administrations at District level is a key pillar to #Somalia's stabilization. With the support of @stability_fund & @MoIFARSomalia, we have today started facilitating dialogues for communities in Hobyo thro' Wadajir Framework's Council formation process!
Completion of #PeaceDividend projects in #Hobyo realized thro increased community engagement & gov't involvement, will no doubt enhance participation in governance, particularly for women & excluded groups leading to reduced community vulnerability to conflict. @stability_fund
The expansion was made possible by the joint efforts and support by local communities, government and the @stability_fund through the #Wadajir Project's Women and peace dividend funds. @CPD_Africa@DFID_UK@UKinSomalia
Expansion of Hobyo Hospital with a maternity wing, Watertank & perimeter wall will no doubt contribute to good service delivery, secure the facility & its land, enhance patient privacy, reduce child & maternal deaths. Mothers will no longer seek maternity services outside Hobyo.
A community initiative is seeing the graveling of the Hobyo-Galkaio Road, & 79 KMs is now completed. Its slogan is โHal ku tag Galkaioโ (1 Camel to Galkaio)- meaning contribute a camel. Apart frm contributing, the nomads continuously pour food & other gifts to the road workers!
Thank you @MohammedYarrow for bringing to the light this menace that threatens the very existence of Hobyo, an ancient coastal city in Somalia's Mudug region. We must fight the sand dunes to save the city from extinction. Any initiative to this effect is much welcome.
To the people of Hobyo town, their biggest threat is not Al-Shabaab, but Sand Dunes! It encroaches on homes, schools & even blocks roads. It overtook some peopleโs homes and displaced them! Grateful if you share with me any past initiatives that were successful in stopping dunes
Stakeholder engagement bringing together Gove't officials, Political Leaders & residents of #Dhusamareeb from all community segments. With the support of the @stability_fund Dhusamareeb will benefit from an Economic Development and Livelihoods project @Gaalmudug @PresidentXaaf
Honored to join @stability_fund and host of other partners in the 2018 Investee Workshop in Nairobi. Stabilization and development of #Somalia among key themes.
