@Abdurahman_somali

Looks nice but what happened to the trees? Where is that?

 

[AussieHustler]

It was unhabited for 70 years and we are replanting trees to stop desertification, this is in north western bari in a town called Bendar Ziada (Qaw)

@MSGA

Thanks, yeah its barren land and requires mass trees and plants replanting. Are there any farms there?

Yes, there are date farms all around the city and also normal farms

Where did Wabeeneeye go for 70 years? Don't leave us on a cliffhanger whilst dropping facts like that.

70 years.


I'm shocked that surrounding clans didn't take the area for themselves.

Bander Ziada is an ancient port city and it was competing with nearby port city Bander Qassim (Bosaso), but unfortunetly our city was right at the border of Italian Somaliland and British Somaliland so they destroyed it under the world war. It was unhabited for almost 70 years before the wabeeneeye community got together and started a resettling program.

Here is a video (20 years ago):

There's money to be made of this if we work to restore the rivers.
Business savvy farmers along with marketers and product developers, will build a strong economic foundation for Somalia to build upon.
Somalia's solution cannot be solved with politics. It has been proven for over 30 years. We, the people are the solution.
We need to build a fertile ground for future leaders of Somalia because the leaders emerging from us now, just wont cut it
