“The country is experiencing the worst drought since the 2011 famine. Three consecutive rainy seasons have failed, resulting in the destruction of livestock and crops,” said Roble, urging the international community to take part in the ongoing emergency assistance to the droughts affected people in the country. “Our calls for help have been answered by various countries and organizations that have sent aid to the worst affected areas of the country
“I appeal to you to come to the aid of the Somali people who are suffering from drought, in order to prevent famine, which would result in mass deaths and a difficult humanitarian situation to deal with,” says Roble source
