Help Save Somalia.

Hunger and Starvation in Somalia.

Africa and the rest of the world is once again being shown pictures and videos of the hunger and starvation in Somalia. The continent has always been shown to the outside world as a place of wars, hunger, drought and starvation with images of hungry children being fed by aid workers. I was really sad today when i heard the African Union special envoy for Somalia Former President Jerry John Rawlings describe the situation to CNN. I then realised that the world at large has really failed and disappointed Somalia, leaving that African nation to degenerate into a dangerous place and less habitable. I hope his appeal for food aid for the starving people will touch the hearts of all good people in this our dear world. The African Union Peace Keeping Force in Somalia needs to be highly commended for the good efforts they are putting in despite they being under resourced. The International community will have to help the AU forces by providing them with the much needed logistics so as they will give off their maximum best, and thereby help in bringing back peace to  Somalia. I hope the food aid will come to alleviate the hunger and starvation that has brought much suffering and hardship to the people of this African country. The African Union and the United Nation should quickly mobilise the much needed food aid and dispatch it to Somalia as early as possible. I will be very happy to see the smiles back on the faces of all Somalians as they enjoy the long awaited peace and stability which has eluded them for almost two decades. You all agree with me that a nation that is stable and peaceful will enable investors to do business and help in the development of that country. The people of Somalia are also children of God and they deserve better things too. Lets all join hands and help our African brothers and sisters in Somalia to live their normal lives devoid of conflicts, hunger and starvation. We should not bury our heads in sand and behave like ostriches because this situation can happen to any country in the world, lets help save Somalia.
