Turkish aid organization to construct 24 new homes in Mogadishu

MOGADISHU (A.A) - December 1, 2011 - The Somali Coordinator of Turkey's Humanitarian Aid Foundation (IHH), Taner Altun, said Thursday that the IHH would construct 24 new homes in Camao Village to replace homes that were completely burnt during the civil war. Speaking to the AA, Altun said that they came to Mogadishu to heal the wounds of the Somali people after long years of civil war. "No one knows why a fire erupted in the Camao village. 24 homes were completely destroyed in the fire in Camao. Somali families whose homes were burned do not have the financial resources to construct new homes. We, as the IHH, will construct homes for 24 families. Each home will have two rooms and a living room," Altun also said.
