Description

Hirsi Farah Ali, village chairman in Waridaad:

“In the past 12 months there has been no rain at all. This is the worst drought because there is such a lack of water. All the water sources here dried up four months ago. The pasture has gone too. Water and pasture – these are the two things we pastoralists depend on.

“Almost 75 percent of the livestock in the village have died. Many sheep have died. Goats are doing a bit better but they are very weak. Even some of the older pack camels have died. The younger camels are ok, but the elderly and those that are lactating and weak after giving birth last year are very vulnerable.

“Before the drought I had 150 sheep and goats – now I have only 40 left. I had 22 camels, but 15 of them have died. They all died in the past four months from hunger and disease. Some of the camels were starving and started eating some trees they don’t usually eat – they got sick as a result. Some of the sheep got diseases in their brain.”
