I'm delving into Dambisamoyo's eye-opening book 'Dead Aid'. It challenges our views on foreign aid in Africa. Is aid truly helping or hindering progress? Join me as I explore this crucial debate on Africa's path to sustainable growth and self-reliance.

Thrilled for "Tanzania: In Honour of an Extraordinary Scholarship", edited by Dr Jama Musse Jama, honouring Prof. Hussein Mohamed Adam (AHN) and his impact on African studies. With contributions from top scholars, this book preserves his legacy and will inspire future generations.

The President of #Somaliland, Abdirahman Irro, spoke at #WorldGovSummit in Dubai, highlighting Somaliland’s history, strategic location and vision for the future. His speech emphasized the need for global engagement in Somaliland’s development and recognition.

In this article, which I published on the Geeska website, I provide an overview of the book From Tyranny to Anarchy: The Somali Experience, written by the renowned scholar Hussein Mohamed Aden, also known as Tansaaniya—may God have mercy on him.

I had a conversation with an 80-year-old version of myself, Hanna Rosin writes. I didn’t like her. theatln.tc/6OWV4rEh

Thrilled to complete the "𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐬" course in my Master’s in #PublicPolicy. Gained valuable insights on governance, ethics, corruption, and service delivery. I am excited to apply these lessons and drive positive change!

I just got my hands on 'Adkeysi' by the esteemed Somali politician and intellectual Abdirahman Abdishakur Warsame. His debut book explores political struggles, intellectual growth, and spiritual resilience. Can’t wait to finish it before 2024 ends!

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

Some of you are better editors than you are writers and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. You've spent a lifetime developing your taste through reading and watching films & TV - you know what's good and what's shit. Trust that superpower when you edit. End result is ultimately the same.

Hey, grown-ups! Don't tell kids that reading is a worthwhile and pleasurable activity - show them! Let them catch you reading a book and sighing, or laughing, or emitting little squeaks of fear, or going back and rereading a bit out loud to yourself. Be a model reader!

I started being regularly published when I was 25. I didn't make my first dollar writing until I was 30. I didn't sell my first novel or screenplay until I was 35. Many of you hadn't even heard of anything I'd written until I was over 40.

You have time. There is no expiration date on writers.

A tale of two African neighbours:

In the Republic of #Somaliland, the Supreme Court has just announced the official results of the recent election, with a peaceful transfer of power to the President-elect scheduled for mid- December!

*sigh*

Anyway, just create. Write shit, draw shit, build whatever you want, that's the important part.

There's no be-all end-all formula for the Perfect Work.

Just be YOU. No one can ever create what YOU create b/c it's you making it, and you are the only you.
