K’Naan to head back to Somalia to motivate the kids

Even after Somalia has just concluded its first independent general elections, there is still a lot to be done for them to stay, or rather, come afloat. Much effort should especially be focused on the children. What better way to ensure a totally different and much more successful and peaceful future for the Somali people.

 

US based musician with Somali origin, K’Naan will be headed back to Somalia following a request by the Somalia Teachers’ community, to help the Somalia pupils gain confidence in themselves and be more proud of their country.

 

K’Naan will not be alone in this tour. He will be accompanied by Mohammed ‘Mo’ Farah, who is a Somali-born British international track and field athlete. Farah grabbed an Olympic medal and it is this kind of inspiration and motivation that the teachers are hoping will rub off the pupils and give them something to live for.
