Autonomy (ostensibly atleast) with no economic power vs economic power with little autonomy. Somalia vs Kenya. As a pragmatist, I'll take Kenya everyday, but the Somali will never accept that because we aren't docile people like Kenyans/Ugandans. They have a prospering country, but the price they pay is their emasculation. We have autonomy, but the price we pay is economic starvation. All about perspective, give me their situation over ours.
Standard of living is way better in Kenya.
If I was stuck back home I would have done whatever it takes to find a way to live in Kenya.
"We have autonomy, but the price we pay is economic starvation. "
Niggas back home are still having clan wars in 2024. We won't be seeing a prosperous Somalia anytime soon .
