STORY
AMISOM kick starts reconstruction works for Qamar Primary School in Mogadishu
The school was established in December 2009 in memory of Dr. Qamar Aden Ali, a
former Health Minister in Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government, who was killed
in a terror attack in the capital.
“This is the best way we can secure the future of Somali children,” said Ms. Deqa
Yasin Haji, the Federal Minister of Women, Gender and Human Rights Development,
during the groundbreaking ceremony, in the city’s Warta Nabada district.
Minister Deqa lauded AMISOM’s support, which she noted was a demonstration of
the Mission’s commitment to seeing Somalia’s children attain an education.
Before it’s closure, the institution, founded to provide care, support and free
education to over five-hundred vulnerable children in Mogadishu, among them
orphans and street children, suffered a series of bombardments from Al-Shabaab.
The attacks destroyed classrooms and the school’s facilities, rendering the institution
inhabitable.
The reconstruction works by AMISOM will ensure the children return to school after
a two-year hiatus.
Ambassador Madeira was flanked at the brief groundbreaking ceremony by Lt. Gen.
Osman Noor Soubagleh - the Military Advisor to the AU Special Representative for
Somalia; Mr. Kareem Adebayo - the Head of the Protection, Human Rights and
Gender Unit at AMISOM and Mr. Andrew Aremo Alele - the AMISOM Civil Engineer.
