As we know every society dwells on this universal,
has a deep historical events which express their
joys , or sorrows or unforgettable episodes left
them painful memories during their prime life or
later, actually keeping history in a record or in
museum is the best way to know something about
specific community dwells on this world, which deals
history, culture, ethnic, or other previous
backgrounds.

Enhance Awdal community is one of those communities
which we mentioned above those had already been
century an old historical ties, long before they
ever were anywhere else in Somali spoken territory.
the best example of this, the long lasting empire
called Adal Empire, which ruled from Zeila and even
Shawa Ethiopia, it was powerful empire and defeated
many Christian’s rulers.
On January 31 in 1984 was bright nice day
cloudy with sunny intervals accompany a gentle
breeze were blowing from the coastal direction,
people in Borama city enjoying wonderful climate and
happy day, but this positive feeling wouldn’t
develop so long happiness as soon as it changed the
darkest day at Borama history, at this moment the
big clock hand stopped 10:35AM.

When six Ethiopian jet fighters
raided Borama the capital of Awdal region, the war
planes bombed 4 primary schools, residential
buildings and market places, In that aggression
among.37 school children (6-14 years old) and four
teachers were killed 39 more school children and 5
teachers were badly injured, in time when the world
nations were busy in saving children from
malnutrition, hunger, disease and ignorance, the
Ethiopian regime is directing its military and human
efforts to kill and massacre Somali children.
and there is no doubt at all that
Ethiopian regime is ruthless enemy that
indiscriminately livestock and massacre human being
both children and adults in violation of all human
rights and international laws.
On behave of Awdal community and the
effected families, we appeal to all peace loving
people and international organization to condemn the
barbaric Ethiopian aggressive air raid to Somali
schools.

Any how, it is clear
this atrocity sends impels to entire Somali nation
about their only enemy Ethiopia, and also remember
that an old sparks can still create heat! But the
massacre happened that day on January 30th 1984; I
deeply believe that no one can shut a rose turn up.
But the big question on the table is, how Mohamed
Siyad Bare military government responds
this massacre or is there was any emergence aid
brought to the victims
Really the answer is
clear, and it is obviously to the most people in the
region. They are deeply believed that the
government did not full-fill its responsibility. We
did not receive neither emergence aid nor help from
the government. We all know that we can not
ask compensation from the Ethiopian dictator Migusto
all we get was a small items of food from NGO's.
Most Awdalties were telling the government to do
something or the government had to protect the city
from further bombardment. At-least, the crime that
committed against young students had to be presented
to the international community, but this is not
happen absolutely. This shortened the moral support
of the most Awdalties to the government.
. All in all, it is
true that memory wanders as shadow fall back today's
darkness; days beyond recall vision comes before us
so gloomy, so anxiety of her lips now silent and
whose lips are closed in patient !!!

Now it is time
to get to the path of creating memorial tower in the
city centre for the victims of that day which will
be remembered forever in our hearts and on the walls
of history, and it is the best way to honour those
fine souls who passed away that day. Especially
which helping today’s new generation to know more
about their previous history, also we have to keep
in mind because every society has a sad stories to
remember like this event.
Finally, I conclude my long
running gloomy pen,
On behave of Awdal community In Djibouti republic
and the effected families, expressing
of condolence with
a deepest sympathy from deep in our heart to those
demised Awdalties society who lost their beloved
children, our childhood friends, our buddies those
who would attend peaceful elementary schools and
walk with us down the path of life. Unfortunately
we miss those who died that day and may Allah rest
their souls in paradise; May Allah blesses our dear
friends who are alive.
Insha’Allah,
surely goodness and mercy shall flow them after
here!!! We see Ethiopian war machine again in Somali
territory. We hope we will prevail, and history will
never repeat itself. Ethiopians can not kill
innocent Somali school children
again.
Here is a list of the school
children, who were killed by the Ethiopian war
planes in the primary schools of Borama (the capital
of Awdal)
