Redemption Song
Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look? Ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the Book

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book
Won't you have to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
All I ever had
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom
Songs of freedom

With all due respect, you sound naive, or should i say brainwashed.
You actually think Turkey spent all that money just so do something for Somalia? oh boy, you can't be that naive. What's the importance of Somalia to turkey? Nothing, what they need on the African continent is a foothold, and Somalia just gave it to them, hell you could say they chose the one country they can easily manipulate to accomplish that mission.
To think all that was built for Somalia? lol, that is funny. Sure Somalia will have some facility access etc, But what Turkey will get is far more than what Somalia will get out of this. Just think about it, what's the purpose? What kind of relationship do they have, what's the span of that relationship? What's the trade value btw both Countries? I'm guessing less than 2 million dollars? Please.
It's all about influence and gaining a foothold, you get crumbs, they get access. Wake up.
Every hen and sheep wants to build a freaking military base on the continent, and some fools are celebrating that, unreal.
Why not ask them to allow Somalia to build same in their country in return, then see them roll their eyes and say hell no.
When these people call your friends, call you important, they are just patronizing you, they are lying. This continent need smart leaders, smh

LTGEN:

Today is Nigeria's Independence day as such I will be civil to you .I seriously doubt you understand some of the Statements you are making
Building a first class Military Base in Nigeria or America is nothing you the difference is they are built for Nigerians by Nigerians and are occupied and used by Nigerians.
Let me get back on Topic.
Kenya has spent Millions on Somalia
Nigeria has spent Millions on Somalia
Ethiopia has spent Millions on Somalia.
Neither Country built a permanent base there
Because each African Country came there to help their African brothers and Sisters in time of need.
There is no ulterior motive.It shows the level of Colonial mentality that still exists in you that you would praise a European Country that has been shown to have an extremely dodgy record in the Middle East as your source of administration.

i understand you because you haven't seen a world class military training facility in the sub sahara countries

newafricaken254:

Somalia is not aspiring to be in the League of developed Nations.
Somalia is on the path to becoming a colony of Turkey.
Don't worry in 10 -20 years time .Those African countries you are referring to will help Somalia win it's war of Independence.

jakeporeshenko:

You want to see pictures of the BTR’s in the field? I have those.
But remember they were acquired in very little numbers so they are hard to come across.

Tinfoil:


The BTR4 seems not to be as advertised. Iraq rejected their order because of multiple flaws like poor welding, engine problems,... so did Indonesia and even Ukraine's own military

patches689:


I dont see african nations lining up to build training facilities in Somalia... so what choice do they have?

If you think that the Turks are interested in Africa, you are mistaken.

Sizzorkay:
Right, the Turks were just being charitable then huh? Good one.

patches689:


LOL, get a load of this guy

LTGEN:

This shows how naive you really after.
The U.N. does not simply dole out cash.
Kenya after their initial invasion of Somalia had to wait months amidsts bickering from the U.N.that it was A.U. affair.
Ethiopia repeatedly threatened to pull out BECAUSE they were not paid .
Ditto Uganda.
For your uneducated mind
1 hectare is 2.75acres
A modern small town is 80 acres by 80 Acres approximately 6 square miles
The Somali Elite gave them the equivalent of 5 towns. Let that sink in.
Somalian policemen and Women are being trained by Nigerian Policemen and Women.
Somalia "Donated" 400 hectares" So that is the price you gleefully show pictures of Somalian Women in Turkey.
I got one for your ignorant ass: The biggest/ Largest Refugee Camp in the World is located in Kenya , Do you think those Somalian regard themselves as Arab ?
If Turkey loves Somalia so much why don't they take Somalian refugees?
Somalia's only well known export to the World is Coal.
How much Coal are they exporting to Turkey.?
