International deal for Radio Somaliweyn


  

Yassin Mahi, one of the top officials of radio and TV Somaliweyn, who is also the head of marketing and international relations at the news organisation, welcomed the development between the two broadcasters.

"This is an historic event for a local Somali radio station to sign an agreement with an international broadcaster, and this issue will have immense advantage for the Somali community," he said.

As Ingemar Löfgren, the director of Swedish Radio International, signed the agreement, Mr. Mahi spoke about the problems faced by journalists working in war ravaged Somalia.

"These independent journalist are working in a very awful circumstances such as constant fear and oppression."

The agreement comes as the director of Somaliweyn Abdurahman Hudeyfi, along with reporter Al-Bashir, are still being held at the headquarters of the national security department in Somalia.
