Freeze assets of these warlords to bring peace to South Sudan
By RASNA WARAH
During the tenure of Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government from 2004 till 2012, Nairobi was jokingly referred to as “the capital of Somalia” because most Somali government officials spent more time in the Kenyan capital than in Mogadishu.
These officials often met in the lobbies of posh hotels in Nairobi, where decisions about Somalia were made and business deals cut.
It is believed that corrupt Somali officials and warlords laundered their ill-gotten wealth by buying property in Nairobi.
