Mayor Kwame Mfuta of Mogadishu, Somalia announced today that the city will host a new festival in the Bakaara Market neighborhood in a bid to increase tourism in the city. Activities will include halal baking classes, street vendors, jihadi musical groups, puppet shows, face-painting and hate-filled sermons shouted out by radical clerics.
The city has fallen on hard times since…well…since it was founded in 900 A.D..The city gained notoriety in 1993 when a group of American Army Rangers was ambushed in the center of the city. The resulting battle resulted in approximately 1,000 Mogadishuans being chewed to pieces by Apache helicopter gunships.
The ‘StreetFest’ will bring thousands of tourists to the heart of the city, says Mayor Mfuta. ‘StreetFest’ will be held on Thursday evenings after prayers. Tickets are 10 shillings in advance, 15 shillings at the gate. Infidels are not welcome…
