MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE OF THE DEATH
OF COLONEL HAISSAMA MOHAMED HOUMED

! INNAA LILLAH WA INNAA ILAYHI RAAJI OUN!

Afar Community in the United Kingdom is deeply saddened to learn of the death of Colonel HAISSAMA MOHAMED HOUMED of the Republic of Djibouti on 29/01/2006, in Djibouti. Colonel HAISSAMA has been described as the most skilled, knowledgeable, experienced and honest Djibouti’s No1- by the French Military Academics and his colleagues equally, due to his intellectual ability, wise leadership, social justice and solidarity. He has served his country and people with distinction at all time. Under his wise leadership, Djibouti’s National Army has achieved a high international standard of progress and modernisation. During the most difficult times he won praise and gratitude for tirelessly working for the restoration of Djibouti’s sovereignty and independence. He will be remembered by many for his wisdom, modesty, generosity, professionalism, courage, and kind attitude.

The President of Afar Community Association in UK, Mr Abdou Youssouf, would like to extend his heartfelt condolences deepest sympathy to the Children, families and immediate relatives of Colonel HAISSAMA, the Government, and people of the Republic of Djibouti and grieve together with them.

May The Almighty Allah bestow His mercy upon him and rest his soul in His internal Peace.

Mr: Abdou Youssouf
President of Afar Community Association UK
