Tribute to Nasteh Dahir Farah

Media workers from across Somalia paid tribute today to Nasteh Dahir Farah at a Safety awareness training course organised by National Union of Somali Journalists (NUSOJ) and the International News Safety Institute. Nasteh Dahir Farah was the Vice president of the NUSOJ, before he was murdered in Kismayu on 7 June,
"Journalists work in the face of deadly threats and our colleague Nasteh Dahir received some of these threats" said Omar Faruk Osman, NUSOJ Secretary General. "Criminals gunned down Nasteh, but his courageous mission did not die with him and will never stop" link
