Somalia is one the fail state countries in the world, that served nearly three decades of wars that started in the early 1980 when the military government has launched heavy attack against the separatist activists Somaliland northern Somalia British colony that has really made the first largest Somalia migration to the neighbouring states Ethiopia and Kenya and to South Somalia.
The second war was 1991 when armed faction leaders and clan militias have ousted the military regime from the country. That led civil wars to spread whole Somalia regions which has destroyed the entire Somali public and privet infrastructures from the schools, hospitals, public roads, markets and all national institutions.
The third chapter of the Somali wars is religious wars started 2005 when Islamist organizations and groups has organized to take control of the country from the factional leaders and warlords who had been captive for the people over one decade. Soon after that Ethopai has launched heavy attack against the Alshabab who has introduced the country relevant stability in the most regions of the country
Somalia has gone out of the transitional system to a federal government 2012 relaying the support of the international community that s changed the AMISOM mandate of Somalia from peace keeping to peace making that led the liberation of more regions that were in the hands of alshabab for one decade.
Natural disaster droughts and floods has also taken part the contribution of migration from Somalia to the world where more than million person affected the droughts that hit the Somali regions from the 2009 to 2011 which is still reeling on the ground and the relic is visible.
Unemployment is last source of the mass illegal migration from the country where hundreds youth graduated from the universities resorted risk migration from the country to the Mediterranean sea through the Sahara Sudan and Libya. There are hundreds Somali students sting university education foreign countries who flee from their education to join the deadly migration to meditation seas
Corruption of the public and private employment process has also raised positive for the risk migration in the country to the Mediterranean sea where there are hundreds newly graduated from the abroad and local universities with master degree their position are fill in by unqualified staff in the national offices and institutions. There is also employment recruitment corruption where some of the staff in the government offices reported taking double salary from different jobs
Somalia federal parliament passed national foreign employment policy that the ministry of labour has brought in front of the Somali parliament national policy for employment, this can really restore of the national employees and workforces which has been dwindling and dying from the market where most Hotels, universities, international NGOs/UN agencies and Embassies are hiring foreign staff from abroad
Finally, the root causes of the illegal deadly migration in Somalia is long whole that need robust campaign against the wars and the corruptions. Young in university had told us that if he didn’t get the right job he deserve he will flee from the country with his certificate in search of job and better life
