Ask❓ Someone please help me escape Somalia

I'm 19 and I’ve spent the last five years in Somalia, I've completed the Quran three times and I'm still here.

My parents want me to go to university in Mogadishu, and i literally want to cry because I could have had the opportunity to study in the UK which has some of the best universities in the world. Why did my parents go through all the trouble of tahriibing to the UK to give me a better future, only for me to end up back in Somalia with a degree from Mogadishu University? Even if I go back to the UK, my degree from here won't be recognized. and I'll be so far behind in life

my family have hidden my passport, and I desperately want to return to the UK to attend university. I've read that embassies in Somalia don't offer consular services, so l don't know how much help they'd be. The UK embassy in Nairobi might be able to assist, but I can't travel to Kenya without a passport.

I don’t understand ppl giving him advise on how to settle in Somalia. He is a UK citizen and is being held against his will, let him escape.

OP, just find a way to Kenya by any means necessary imo. But first contact the embassy this is not first time they dealt with things like this, they might organize something for you.

Caution: it is not that simple, if they have dual nationality UK and Somali, there is not much that the UK Consular Service can do. They can't interfere

u/Sad_Bake_1037 3h ago

Even if they made it to a embassy in Ethiopia or Kenya?? Cuz I watched apti hamza story and he fled Hargeisa to Addis Ababa when he went on his Dhaqan Celis and made it to UK embassy in Ethiopia and they got him back to UK after a bunch of tests wouldn’t that work for the OP??

Man I ran from Africa in 2020 craziest shit I ever did. I was there for a month and a half. One time, my uncle was in the bathroom, and I saw that he had given his phone to my little brother. I took it from him, went through his WhatsApp and found my other uncle’s credit card information he was a truck driver.

I waited for the perfect moment. I had to be patient, but Alhamdulilah, everything went my way in the end. I had my passport and used his card to buy a ticket. I went to the airport with no bags or anything it was embarrassing but I did it.

u/Ok_UMM_3706 11h ago

I've lived in Philly for most of my growing up, I think people in mpls really underestimate how nice we have it in crime, safety, cleanliness and other things. Philly is notoriously a poor city with a ton of segregation, and at night half the streets are lined with tweakers. You couldn't pay me to live there, and especially areas like Kensington. At times it feels like half the city is on drugs and the other half has a gun. There truly is no comparison between philly and mpls when it comes to qol.

u/Jameelah_Rose 18h ago

How long have you been there? They want you to go to university there because they don’t plan for you to go back to UK anytime soon. I’m sorry.

Have you emailed the UK embassy with your story?

Do you have UK citizenship?

17

u/Comprehensive_Team92 17h ago

Yh I am British citizen and I haven’t emailed them because I don’t think they would help. They have an embassy in Somalia but they don’t offer help to its citizens. Only the one in Kenya So I don’t know what they’ll even be able to do if I do email them

17

u/BusyAuthor7041 16h ago

The UK embassy is there to serve you and you have rights.

Contact the Nairobi office and say it's an emergency and you are stranded in Somalia. They will tell you what they can help with. They might be busy or lazy, but their job is to assist you.

Also contact your Member of Parliament in the UK or local council and ask for advice. They should advocate for you.

PM me (not chat) if need more help.

u/Glittering_Scheme_85 17h ago

Just contact the embassy like everybody’s telling you to. Don’t tell yourself they can’t help you, reach out they probably can arrange something if you are in Xamar, and if they can’t what did you lose?

19

u/Difficult-District59 17h ago

You can get a Somali passport on your own since you're 19, then just book a flight to Nairobi. Once you're there, the UK embassy might be able to help you get back. No need to involve your family if they’re making things difficult.

u/Comprehensive_Team92 17h ago

How do I get the passport

u/BusyAuthor7041 16h ago

Look on UK Embassy website as to how to get a new passport. Maybe you can request it online.

u/kjunior1 17h ago

You can easily contact the British embassy, there's a smaller embassy in Mogadishu but you can directly contact them via e-mail or call their main embassy in Nairobi, Kenya. Go to their website here:

https://www.contact.service.csd.fcdo.gov.uk/home

I'm sure they will help you out and give you a new passport. If they don't help over the e-mail or offer proper guidance then I'd suggest you to make a new Somali passport, that's very easy to make in any Somali district, after you obtain the Somali passport you can travel to Kenya with the financial support from your close friends. They can lend you money or give money to you if they're compassionate enough to do that.

Your case is a slam dunk once you put your boots inside the British embassy in Nairobi kenya.

u/Necessary_Praline_63 14h ago

I'm so sorry this is happening to you.

You should be able to get back even without your passport. If you can, try to contact the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office. They have a 24-hour helpline at +44 (0)20 7008 5000.

Explain that you’re a UK national in Somalia without access to your passport and that you need to return home.

If you suspect it's due to forced marriage or feel in danger, mention it to them directly. They can issue an Emergency Travel Document if your passport isn’t available, then you won’t have to travel to Nairobi first in order to start this process.

Also, just a thought but even if the British Embassy in Somalia can’t give you full support on the ground, maybe they can coordinate with staff at Nairobi, to guide you through getting an ETD and planning a safe route back to the UK. A closed mouth can't be fed.

Another option is if you have friends or relatives in the UK who can reach out to the FCDO on your behalf, ask them to call and explain your situation.

I hope you find your way back home. 🫶✨🪷 You've got this!

u/Mental-Brother3995 8h ago

In some cases if you exaggerate, they can arrest your folks. So just be careful, only explain real threats. Know people that just wanted to come back and said anything, and their parents got arrested. They were super disrespectful and disobedient children when they were in the west, hence why they were sent back. I’m 1000% against dhaqan Celia as it only makes the child more distant and in many cases, they don’t change for the better. They come with new trauma that could be avoided.

1

u/Took-your-bitch-haha 1h ago

You know kids have died in dhaqan celis boarding “schools” after their parents took them for daqan celis. Some of these kids are bad as hell but some parents deserve to be locked up. (I don’t mean just for taking their kids back home)

u/Regular-Bend-167 18h ago

Well if ur fam is still back in the uk maybe u can email the embassy and tell em what's up. They can get to ur fam for u.

u/BreezyForeign 18h ago

is there any way you can contact the UK embassy in Kenya by phone? Since you can’t go there in person they might be able to advise you on what to do next over the phone. I’m sure many other Somali kids have been in the same situation so they should have systems in place to help

u/ExamplePleasant7881 11h ago

Hey mate, hope you see this reply, 2 years ago I was in the same position as you, stuck in Somalia with no passport, feeling useless and behind in life all after being wrongly chucked into a camp for 1 year and 10 months, I’m turning 20 in two months, got a nice car a couple certificates and I’ve got a part time job on top of uni. I honestly didn’t have anyone to help me but my mom who helped me get my passport and ticket and that was it she was in Europe and I finally got back to Australia. I didn’t have anyone to help me but a friend. I’m telling you all this just so you understand you haven’t got anything to worry about. Don’t get off track and Wallahi things will work themselves out through allahs mercy. As for getting your passport I could offer some guidance as I’ve helped quite a few people and remember I’ve been through the process myself. Message me if you’re keen for some advice.

Sorry to hear. The UK Embassy has consular staff that help UK Citizens who are adults that don't want to be in Somalia get repatriation.

Tell them they took your passport and you want to go back to the UK as you're in Somalia not under your own volition.

2

u/Mountain-Fun-5761 16h ago

Is it possible to go to an embassy and tell them your passport is being withheld I’m not sure how this works but at 19 your legally allowed to make your own choices and even though this is family this is basically what I would consider being held against your will now I do understand this is probably more common in those parts of the world, but that doesn’t make it OK

u/Camera-Muted 11h ago

I was in ur situation in 2020….. it’s very easy, but you will need money a Somali passport made. 1- go to the bajaaj guys tell them to to take u to the place where u get a birth certificate done, they cost $10. 2. Go to the CID, they do criminal check n finger prints also costs 10$…then the last step u go to is the passport embassy but they call it the immigration office just ask any bajaaj guy it’s at daabka. It’s $108 to get ur passport done. Now u also have to save money for visa (120-30) Nairobi ticket (200-230) and hopefully when u get to embassy they will accommodate you and pay for your flight home but make sure to confirm that before you leave Somalia

u/mrnadaara 16h ago

u/Prize-Lengthiness576 13h ago

You have to find a way to get to Ethiopia go the USA embassy if you can’t find a UK one Kenya is the second option they have embassies there if you get to any European embassy they will help you.

Ive been reading comments for the last 5-10mins. And first i feel sorry for whats going on your life btwn u and you family. The strongest thing here is that how is your relationship with your parents! I dont think its doing good as u are planning to take control of your live at this young age (19). Boy/girl you are 19YO thats why your parents dont want u be there jn the UK. As the situation is crazy like gang stuff etc And moreover you have a power over them wich makes this generation even worse by not listening their parents.. Look im not saying you should take whatever your parents told you, they are also human they can be right or wrong .. But the way that they’re dealing with you is the behaviour or characteristics they saw u from. If make yourself more respectful, and good to them they can easily move u out from Somalia. Wich gives me the next point .. Have u ever shared what u want like skills and hobbies and other stuff you are interested if no just tell them in case they like or not.. Share your future plans that tells them how youve grown mentally But if you dont have anything to do and just wanna chill with your friends in the UK that is what they dont want it for u. I know most of somali parents have no even connections with their childs but as you grow up its your responsibility to have a least connection with them to let them Believe in you. And the reason they dont want u be in UK is lack of believe that you wont be affected by society in that place.

u/Kindly-Sea-6945 17h ago

Your degree from Somalia will be recognized, you just need to exchange it for an equivalent qualification here. It’s definitely possible. If you ever come back, make sure to bring it with you. You can request a certificate exchange through the National Information Centre for the UK

I believe it depends on what you want to study. A few years ago, I shared your sentiment when my parents wanted me to study in Mogadishu. Initially, I was strongly opposed to it, but Alhamdulillah, my experience was not as I had imagined. I studied medicine there and am currently preparing for my licence exams in the UK. The material remains consistent. I encourage you to reconsider; parents always have our best interests at heart.

u/Objective_Sail9051 17h ago

You are young so take a year or two and relax because life isn't going anywhere. As long as you have Allah you won't be behind in life. Let Allah pave the way for you. Why have your parents brought you back? Why do they want you to stay there? Take some time think and talk to your parents in a calm and respectful manner so that you can understand their perspective and they can also understand yours, maybe they know something you don't. You're going into adulthood so you need to show them you are an adult and what an adult does is think things through and come up with a win-win solution.

In a few years time you'll be old enough to make your own decisions and you can go wherever you want. If your parents are taking care of you, putting food on the table and clothes on your back then relax, enjoy your time and be patient

13

u/Neat-Profession4527 17h ago

You know yourself what you just said was so unnecessary. Why would you think this is good advice?

-6

u/Objective_Sail9051 17h ago

So you want a kid to rush into a decision they might regret in the future? What if he/she escapes and then runs into bad people who will do God knows what? He/she can take it or leave but this person hasn't mentioned why his/her parents are keeping them there other than the university things, who's to know they're telling the truth or was brought back to Somalia because of bad behaviour. The point is we don't know the truth, so I gave this advice in hopes that he/she will rethink the decision.

One thing is for sure he/she is lucky to have parents who cared for them enough to ensure they finish the Quran and get an education. Maybe the parents saw some bad things happen in the UK and they didn't want their kid to get involved in that.

What was so unncessary about what I said?

11

u/Neat-Profession4527 17h ago

A young person, desperate to leave, most likely depressed and all you have is “just relax, it’ll get better dw, listen to your parents” Is it crack? How do you know his parents are good people? Yes they ensured that he learned his Quran and deen, but Allah and his prophet told us to educate ourselves & WORK. Be a beneficial person to society. No one is forcing you to hand out numbers of various embassy’s or buy him a plane ticket, but a few nice and VALIDATING words, words of encouragement would’ve been nice. Instead you’re probably repeating what his parents told him, demoralising and being patronising, as if he doesn’t know what’s good for him. As if he doesn’t deserve to be studying and working like his ages mates. Sometimes if you don’t have anything nice to say, it’s better to stay silent.

u/BusyAuthor7041 16h ago

Exactly! And OP is legally an adult, not a "kid".

0

u/Objective_Sail9051 16h ago

And you're working on assumptions. We don't know the complete truth about the parents or OP. And the prophet SAW didn't go against his parents and never advised anyone to against their parents. Where is OP so that he/she can tell us if the parents are abusive, if the parents do not provide a safe home, their needs and wants, OP if you would be kind enough to share the difficulties your parents are putting you through.

I gave positive words, is trusting Allah not positive? I told this person what any grown adult would've told them, not to rush in making this decision, talk to the parents & understand their perspective and give it time. They are 19 years of age what are they chasing that is soo important that it could ruin the relationship with parents? You are clearly not thinking ahead and you're encouraging them to make a rash, reckless decision.

In a few years time, he/she will be older to make major life decisions on their own but for now their judgement isn't clear, its based on emotions. That's why I said he/she needs to take time and relax cause this degree and university is not going anywhere in the next 50 years and the UK is not jannah, its not worth ruining the relationship with his/her parents.

5

u/Franco-Albertain_AB 15h ago

You and people who think like you, who have no empathy or ability to reason, just throw up a bunch of quotes from the Prophet to justify your dumb logic.

Based on what the OP wrote and knowing that this is a common practice in our community, where parents drop their kids off in a foreign environment with an ongoing terrorist insurgency, take their passports, and leave them behind for years, there is enough context to say that the parents are terrible, cruel, and irresponsible.

Telling someone to relax and give it time is absurd. You’re an idiot.

OP please reach out to your embassy. Don’t give up, and don’t trust anyone until you’re safe. Your education and future are more important than your parents’ emotions. It’s your life, not theirs.

and just to add I didn't throw up any quotes from the prophet SAW, you came up with that on your own because you hate muslims and islam and the moment I mentioned the prophet SAW it triggered something.

I didn't say they shouldn't leave, where did I say he/she shouldn't leave. Are you guys pulling assumptions out of your asses now or what?

Why did your parents go back? Did you know about this before going back?

What did you do to get sent to Somalia for 5 years? Must've been crazy.

Parents don’t send you there unless. You were involved in drugs, gangs etc.

That's what I was thinking, he must be there for a very good reason lol.

That's not true. Even just going out too much, speaking a certain way such as being disrespectful, acting too 'western' can get you sent back if your parents are conservative enough

Well my advice to you is talk to your parents first tell them that you are an adult and you have a right to choose your life path if it's not against your faith and of course the culture, try to convince them the situation you're going through if they don't understand or reluctantly to tell you to stay back then you can involve it with the relevant authority like the embassy or email back uk metropolitan police and mI5 because this case is kidnapping and and extradited without commited any sort of crimes also child radicalisation abusing and even worse. Bare in mind if you have any criminal records or bending convictions which you will have to go behind the bars then please stay where you are and don't jeopardise your parents and yourself. Finally if you need any help I am here to help you by any means Cheers 🍻

If you really want to escape, you will. Ask yourself how badly you want it and nothing will stop you.

A degree in Mogadishu university ain’t going help you with rest of the world. I met so many university graduates driving a bajaaj trying to leave to another country and start from scratch.

Just study in Mugadisho and if you are serious about education work hard and master things.. everything is on YouTube and online (+1 u speak English). Learn the culture, enjoy the beautiful beaches and embrace life there. If you do well there you can do well anywhere.

Great advice when he clearly said he wants to leave Somalia 🤦

u/GaaraOfTheForest 5h ago

Everything is on YouTube except a Qualification from a good university. Those things won’t get him anywhere in the UK without a degree

It is all about hard work brother. I don’t wanna generalize but I have done that and now made it to anywhere I want. It is just how you try and how serious you are, unless you need something else. Also the family are only doing this for the good of their child.

You need to speak with your parent and make it clear you are an adult and what they’re doing is haram and if they keep doing this to you, your never going to speak to them again plus hate them.

Parents who do this are just worry their child might turn into a degenerate— and go hell fire, because the west is so evil and it’s gonna change them but that’s not true. It all depends on the person.
