Somali saying which says, don’t chat with he who chats about you
in an ill way, and he is idiot enough whoever thinks to usurp the
rights of 82 Somali Journalists, who have beautifully came
together and democratically elected single leader, their were some
individuals who have been greedily taking the rights of these
Somali Journalists who have fled from their motherland due to
insecurity, and for sure from the 11th of September these
individuals will be odd crows which have fallen in front of the
independent Somali Media” reiterated the Honorable Dahir Alasow

“There are some Websites which have written fabricated issues
about the election of the Somali Journalists in Nairobi, and I
pursued them and proved them wrong in fact they are swimming in a
pool full of disgrace not water, in fact the whole picture of the
election and how it has taken place was spread in most of the
Somali Websites, so thus these few Websites which have given out
the false expression about the election in Nairobi have in the
name of Allah poured petrol onto their bodies and set fire set
fire on themselves” said Honorbale Dahir Abdulle Alasow.

the some individuals to bribe the Lady who reports for Universal
TV not to air this historical event
“We thought that Universal TV is a TV for the Somali people, but
now I speaking on behalf of the Somali Journalists we came to
realize that it is a TV which takes bribe and airs views of
anybody who bribes it, I am sure bribe will not take you to
anywhere, and be unbiased” said Daud Abdi Daud.

is trustable, famous for justice, I have enough knowledge foe him,
because we have enrolled the field of journalism in the same time,
and for him to carry his duties in God Fearing Way” said
Journalist Qadaffi.




This momentous election in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, has brushed
aside, the interest of the individuals who have been using the
name of the Somali Journalists as an NGO, and the Somali
Journalists have from now henceforth crossed over the bridge of
deceiving and entertainments.
