KENYA:
Kenya is believed to be home of the largest Ogaden Somali Refugees outside Somalia and Ethiopia. As we tried to shed some light on this previously, most of them are Ogaden Refugees from Somalia and their children many of whom were born in the refugee camps. The majority live in Dadaab Refugee Camp where on last July this year one of the biggest demonstrations against Meles Zenawiâ’s crackdown against civilians took place.
Unlike their Somali bothers from the Republic, only small number of them were able to be resettled in the West in the name of Somali Refugees and they face many challenges among the most important being no recognition from the United Nations as well as the Ethiopian government which claims Ogaden to be part of Ethiopia. It is also worthy mentioning many Ogaden refugees have relatives in the Somali inhabited North-eastern Province and live with them in order to survive
THE PRESS RELEASE FOR OGADEN REFUGEE COMMUNITY INSECURITY
Kenya was the safest Refugee hub of the horn Africa, now becomes the hub of organised and politicised crimes from new wave of Refugee from Ogaden ethiopia Those people who fled from ethiopia Regime of Dictator Meleze Zenawe ,The EPRDF who want to vitiate and target anyone suspected to be against their political programme.
The irony here is that Kenyan police are unable to grasp what is going on behind the scene and they are a victim of assassinated and manipulated crimes from a Ethiopia Security Agency group that is using all possible avenues to misuse the system.
Kenya hosted thousands of ogaden Refugee from Ogaden in Ehiopia and they have made their home refugee camps and also urban refugee in kenya , but the real problem ethiopia is dis-honouring that and international human rights acting on the opposite.
Since UWSLF (EX-Alitahad) made an agreement with Ethiopia and laid down their longstanding insurgent operations, Ethiopia has been radicalized as result of that, and since displayed more signs of extremism.
Finally the real matter was Ogaden refugee survive out of this ? The answer is "NO" because it happened victim of ideological warfare assassination from Ethiopian Government mindsets.
An assassin has shot Mr Abdirizak Mohamed Abdi (Tiba), a community leader from Ogaden under the protection of the UN and the Kenyan government in IFO refugee camp in Kenya on August 19 2011 at noon. Mr Abdi was fifty years old. He left behind three daughters and six boys.
The assassin initially escaped from the scene, but the Kenyan Police apprehended him later. Reports reaching ORC(Ogaden Refugee Community) indicate that several cohorts were assisting the culprit. The assassin tried to resist arrest, wounding a Kenyan police officer, but was finally overpowered and placed in custody. The identity of the assassin and his motive is under investigation. Another suspect who was captured by the police.
This is the fourth killing of a refugee from the Ogaden in Kenya this year. On February 5 2011, unknown assailants shot dead Kamas Dhabar Jibarte, while seriously wounding Roble Muse in IFO- Dhadhaab Refugee Camp in Northern Eastern Kenya.
Then, on February 18 2011, Sh. Mohamed Dubad was assassinated in Garisa , the Capital of Kenyan North Eastern Province. Three months later, in June 20, 2011, Mr Abdi Abdulahi was abducted in Nairobi and he was found strangled the next day, dumped near an isolated depot. Although the investigations regarding those cases are still on going, no one was arrested yet.
The common thread in all these assassinations is that all the deceased were outspoken opponents of the Ethiopian regime of Meles Zenawi at one time or another. The terroristic acts against Ogaden political figures and refugee in the neighbouring countries will escalate the already deleterious conflict to new dimensions and endanger the security of the whole region.
ORC says " we urge UNHCR to understand the only durable solution of Ogaden Refugee Community in Kenya both Urban refugee and Refugee in Refugee Camps is Resettlement of Third country because of ogaden Refugee community in kenya is under threat of more assassination and organised crimes from ethiopia government"
