Puntland hosted Bantus and D&M since the civil war, however, in recent years, construction companies have found more affordable and more skilled workers from foreign countries.
Instead of going back to their native regions some of whom are AlShaydan free, they are asking for 'work'. Puntland is not a developed nation, nor can we afford to look after thousands of people who are unemployed.
It's high time for South-West State to bring back their people and lobby for funding/train/employ them. Furthermore, it's a security risk for countless unemployed men to be lounging around on our streets, they would be enticed to join gangs or even AlShaydan.
Every Federal State needs to look after its own people, we are not responsible for all Somali Nationals.
