OSAFA Fact-finding Committee Conducts Organisation Performance Appraisal
After a
meticulous year-long review and investigation into the operations of the
organisations currently working in Somalia, a fact-finding committee assigned by
the Office for Supervising the Affairs of Foreign Agencies (OSAFA) has
documented a fully comprehensive report, through highly credible internal as
well as external sources, detailing the illicit activities and misconducts of
some of the organisations.
In response to the findings of the committee, OSAFA has decided to
permanently revoke the permissions of the following organisations to operate
inside Somalia.
1. Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)
2. World Health Organisation (WHO)
3. United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF)
4. United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA)
5. United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS)
6. Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU)
7. Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC)
8. Danish Refugee Council (DRC)
9. Concern
10. Norwegian Church Aid (NCA)
11. Cooperazione Internazionale (COOPI)
12. Swedish African Welfare Alliance (SAWA)
13. German Agency For Technical Cooperation (GTZ)
14. Action Contre la Faim (ACF)
15. Solidarity
16. Saacid
Apart from the collective misappropriation of funds and public trust in their
operations, the following organisations were found to be:
1- Generating and collecting data through dubious programme under the guise of
demographic surveys, vaccinations reports, demining surveys, nutrition analyses
and population censuses.
2- Using field data and analyses for dishonest policies and programmes other
than poverty reduction, humanitarian aid, provision of life opportunities and
development of sustainable living conditions.
3- Working with international bodies to foster secularism, immorality and the
degrading values of democracy in an Islamic country.
4- Some organisations were found to be collaborating with trans-national
ecumenical churches and acting as platforms for proselytizing young, susceptible
and often impoverished Muslim children.
5- Conveying communications and disseminating information regarding the
activities of the Muslims and particularly the Mujahideen.
6- Financing, aiding and abetting subversive groups seeking to destroy the basic
tenets of Islamic penal system.
7- Persistently galvanizing the local population against the full establishment
of Islamic Shari’ah system.
8- Lacking complete political detachment and neutrality with regard to the
conflicting parties in Somalia, thereby intensifying the instability and
insecurity gripping the nation as a whole.
9- Undermining the livelihoods and cultural values of the population through the
pervasive practice of corruption and bribery as means of operation.
10- Working vigorously in partnership with several organisations in order to
exploit the country of its natural resources.
11- Acting as an impediment to the people’s ability to reach long term
sustainability through the preservation and management of their natural
resources in a self-determined manner.
12- Amplifying the refugee crisis in the country and failing to implement
durable solutions that satisfactorily resolve the suffering of internally
displaced refugees.
13- Promoting the fragmentation of the local population through the pursuance of
tribal associations in their social interactions and partnerships.
In the light of these findings, OSAFA shall henceforth continue to dispatch a
yearly fact-finding committee to evaluate and appraise the performance of all
the organisations operating inside Somalia. Any organisation found to be
supporting or actively engaged in activities deemed detrimental to the
attainment of an Islamic State or performing duties other than that which it
formally proclaims will be banned immediately without prior warning.
